EDITORIAL
After our editorials last month for a new UK Section Editor to take over in January 2016, when Mick will be standing down, I am pleased to announce that Ben Sadler has offered to take on the post and will be assisting Mick with the UK Section between now and the New Year. It is especially pleasing as, unlike the majority of our readership, Ben is a young enthusiast and will bring with him new blood to the magazine. Let us hope that he will still have news to report on when he reaches middle age some time in the future! However, for now, there are still military aeroplanes out there to see - so please remember to send in your reports to the section Editors (or to me if they nedd splitting and passing on to the respective editors).
In the case of photographs for possible publication, then please send them as JPEGs to me at "[email protected]" If you do not get the PDF version then you are missing out on many extra illustrations each month - for those members getting the paper version of MAR you are also entitled to a free PDF version each month (this is the basic magazine plus extra pages of photographs). If you would like to be able to download this free magazine each month in PDF format, please email me with details of your email address you wish to use to download it to and I will arrange for you to be enrolled for this facility. Next month we will be offering the PDF MAR and @MAR via a new web site which Moray has produced and for which you will receive the details next month by email - the current site wil also continue side by side until the end of 2015.

As Brian has mentioned overleaf, Ben Sadler is taking over my place from the end of January 2016, but in the meantime he will be working with me each month to produce the MAR UK Mil section. So I would publicly welcome him to the team. With the summer months now on us, please can you send in your reports for any base visits or airshows so that we can give you all the best reports on what is happening…..Mick Boulanger (Military movements is history, now and for our future)

The main cause of the over run is due to the large amounts of clay which has proved hard to remove with the amount of rain that fell during the autumn. There have also been large amounts of underground services found such as pipework and cables that were laid back in the WW2 era, most of these were not on the official records as they were installed before records were kept.
