C ONTENTS TO J UNE 2017 AIRFIELD REVIEW The Journal of the Airfield Research Group The journal was initially called Airfield Report , then ARG Newsletter, finally becoming Airfield Review in 1985. The number of pages has varied from initially just 6, occasio- nally to up to 60 (a few issues in c.2004). Typically 44, recent journals have been 48. There appear to have been three versions of the ARG index/ table of contents produced for the magazine since its conception. The first was that by David Hall c.1986, which was a very detailed publication and was extensively cross-referenced. For example if an article contained the sentence, ‘The squadron’s flights were temporarily located at Tangmere and Kenley’, then both sites would appear in the index. It also included titles of ‘Books Reviewed’ etc Since then the list has been considerably simplified with only article headings noted. I suspect that to create a current cross-reference list would take around a day per magazine which equates to around eight months work and is clearly impractical. The second version was then created in December 2009 by Richard Flagg with help from Peter Howarth, Bill Taylor, Ray Towler and myself.

  • The Aircraft Flown by 24 Squadron
    The Aircraft Flown by 24 Squadron 24 Squadron RAF is currently the Operational Training Squadron for the Lockheed C130J Hercules, based at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire. Apart from a short period as a cadre in 1919, they have been continuously operating for the RFC & RAF since 1915. They started off as a Scout (Fighter) Squadron, developed into a ground attack unit, became a communications specialist with a subsidiary training role, and in 1940 became a transport squadron. I have discovered records of 100 different types being allocated or used by the Squadron, some were trial aircraft used for a few days and others served for several years, and in the case of the Lockheed Hercules decades! In addition many different marks of the same type were operated, these include; 5 Marks of the Avro 504 1 civil and 4 Military marks of the Douglas DC3/ Dakota All 7 marks of the Lockheed Hudson used by the RAF 4 marks of the Lockheed Hercules 5 marks of the Bristol F2B fighter 3 Marks of the Vickers Wellington XXIV Squadron has operated aircraft designed by 39 separate concerns, built in Britain, Belgium, France, Germany, Holland, and the USA. The largest numbers from one maker/ designer are the Airco and De Havilland DH series totalling 22 types or marks, followed by 12 types or marks from Lockheed, and 11 from Avro. The total number of aircraft operated if split down into different marks comes to 137no from the Airspeed “Envoy” to the Wicko “Warferry” Earliest Days 24 Squadron was formed at Hounslow as an offshoot of 17 Squadron on the 1st September 1915 initially under the command of Capt A G Moore.

  • 57 / 630 Squadrons Association
    57 / 630 Squadrons Association President: Group Captain David Houghton Vice President: Group Captain (retd) Tony Gunby Secretary: Gordon Lodge 2013 Newsletter 57 Squadron Standard Party at East Kirkby on Reunion Sunday 1 In Memoriam Buck Buckley George Sawyer Frank Cork Walter Upton Fred Panton Arnold Yates Once again I have to report the loss of some Members during the year. A sad occasion reflecting on the people I have known or had contact with over the years. In particular Fred Panton who was so instrumental in the facilities for the Assoc. At East Kirkby. Buck Buckley, one of the founder members of the Assoc. George Sawyer who attended every Reunion. Gordon Lodge Lady Jessica Broom I am sorry to inform Members that Lady Jessica Broom, widow of our first President Sir Ivor Broom, died on 29th November. Lady Broom continued with her support of the Association attending many events over the years. She will be missed by the Association. Gordon Lodge PRESIDENT’S PIECE I start this short note with a belated “happy 70th birthday” to all our 630 Squadron Members. Formed on 15 November 1943 from B Flight of 57 Squadron, 630 may have had a relatively short active Service life, but its impact alongside 57 Squadron operating from RAF East Kirkby was immense. The Squadron’s motto ‘nocturna mors' (literally, ‘Death by Night’) could not have been more apt. We remain fortunate that the unbreakable ties between 57 Squadron and 630 Squadron, and the spirit that links our Association to those who serve in today’s RAF, are recognised by successive OCs 57 Squadron (now Squadron Leader Nick Lambert) and Squadron personnel.
