Terrific video -- thanks for posting! My dad & several uncles served in WW2, and I'm in awe of what those millions who served did.

Flew over here in 2021 in a 1961 Piper Cherokee on its 60th birthday. This aircraft based at nearby Sibson Airfield reg G-LIZI. Polebrook was nearly developed instead of nearby Molesworth which is reported as closing.

Very nice flying Ian. We had a meet up at the Thor Missile site with members of Drone Seekers International a few weeks ago. Check out our local member, Kim - Discovering History on KZbin. He's made some great videos on the history of WW2 sites in the area, including the Thor site.
