This is my 200th airfield I've covered. RAF Staplehurst, Kent

[@rogerburbidge826]

I come from Kent but now live in Newmarket in Suffolk. A few years back there was a gathering of Spitfires at RAF Duxford, getting ready for a fly past at Buckingham Palace. The sound and volume of the 8 or 10 engines from 12 miles away was quite something. I've often wondered what the sounds would have been like during the War when hundreds of bombers and fighters would have been gathering for a raid. God bless them all. And thank you for this video!

There is a sound recording of nightingales in a wood during the war that captured the noise of the first 1,000 bomber raid flying over head. Well worth listening to that, it will give you an idea.

I used to live in Egerton near Pluckley and this was the field often mistaken for Headcorn. If I remember rightly, there were sections of psp which could still be found littered around the area. I know local after the war had used drop tanks as boats etc

Wishing you a very happy D-Day 80th!

I live near three old airfields, Saltby, North Witham, and Dalby. Have you done a video on these fields?

[@TravellingbacktosAirfields]

I've covered 25% so far, 200 airfields, I know I've covered Saltby but some are old videos that need updating with station history. Here's a full alphabetical list of airfields covered so far www.rafupwood.co.uk/travelling.htm

Nothing left but ghosts.

[@chrishollands2458]

Have you looked at RAF Headcorn (Kent) as opposed to RAF Lashenden (which is now Headcorn airfield!) Google Earth has WW2 aerial photographs of the airfield which is to the NE of Bedlam Lane, opposite the war memorial to the Canadians. Apologies if you already covered this, just saw this today.

Yes I think it's covered, here's a full alphabetical list of airfields covered so far. www.rafupwood.co.uk/travelling.htm

You wouldn't know it was even there, not to mention it was dismantled very quickly
