Airfields of Britain

@RobertJenrick Given too your newspaper article, very disappointing to say the least you did not even bother to reply to our press release concerning ABCT's memorial unveilings to Ossington and Winthorpe Airfields in your constituency in May 2022. abct.org.uk/airfields/ossi… abct.org.uk/airfields/wint…

Two thirds of people under the age of 40 don’t even know what the Battle of Britain is. It’s the result of allowing our history, heroes, flags, and culture to be sneered at and neglected. Enough. We are a great country and should always be proud of our history.

@timfarron Most disappointing, to put it mildly, that you did not attend ABCT's Cark Airfield memorial unveiling that same Saturday morning - you were notified, but we never even received any form of reply. Extremely disrespectful to the airfield and all concerned. abct.org.uk/airfields/airf…

Day 5 of my summer surgery tour on Saturday took me to Grange, Allithwaite, Cartmel, Cark, Flookburgh, Witherslack, Heversham, and Levens. On the agenda: water quality, climate change, the NHS, traffic, empty homes, proportional representation, Grange Lido, and shark protection!

ABCT will be in southern Cumbria to unveil memorials to Cark (August 30) and Millom (August 31), both at 11 am, following considerable public demand - make sure to be there. abct.org.uk/airfields/airf… abct.org.uk/airfields/airf…

One of Britain's and Scotland's greatest ever heroes: thank you so much for your tremendous service and phenomenal bravery. aberdeenlive.news/news/aberdeen-… abct.org.uk/airfields/airf…

@mrsdgrif @guardspoloclub @RoyalAirForce @SkyNews We do not of course wish to accidentally sound rude, but are not only (a) saying precisely what has happened in more recent times but (b) pushing extremely hard to get this current situation resolved (which hopefully will now be very soon), hence as said watch this space.

@ABCTlive @guardspoloclub @RoyalAirForce @SkyNews this is aggressive. My wish is 2 restore the monument. X limits words but my intention for 4 years has been 2 honour everyone. Last year you said it was Covid now it’s a masonry company that never replied. I don’t need/want blame just a solution. Why attack someone who cares

@ABCTlive @guardspoloclub @RoyalAirForce @SkyNews I fposted about the sad deterioration of this tribute to our fallen & beloved late Prince Philip in 2021. posted annually since. This is the sad state of it now. Covid is no longer an excuse when will you do something?

@BBCWorldatOne A couple of serious elementary errors elsewhere in the interview. Famous British airfield Mildenhall is in Suffolk, not Norfolk, while no bomber would ever use an 'airport'. If this is supposed to be research... abct.org.uk

‘This is an enormously difficult challenge…only the US is potentially capable.’ Justin Bronk, Senior Research Fellow for Airpower and Military Technology at RUSI, explains how an American air assault on Iran’s underground nuclear plant would work. #BBCWato

Absolutely shameful what is happening today concerning Tollerton - this famous and highly regarded airfield both should and could have been saved. nottinghampost.com/news/local-new… abct.org.uk/airfields/airf…

Now one of Bicester's hangars on fire, following other recent fires at Old Sarum and Desborough - closely monitoring this situation, hugely worrying. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… abct.org.uk/airfields/airf…

ABCT will be back in Northumberland, following general public demand, to unveil memorials to Acklington (May 10, 2 pm) and Brunton (May 11, 10.15 am) - make sure to be there. abct.org.uk/.../airfi.../a… abct.org.uk/airfields/airf…

The latest from Old Sarum... at the very least there should be a full and rigorous combined police and fire investigation to find out exactly what has happened - ABCT willing to help, if our assistance is requested. salisburyjournal.co.uk/news/25099855.…

ABCT will be in Cambridgeshire to unveil memorials to Oakington (March 28, 10.30 am) and Bourn (March 29, 12 noon) - already significant general public interest. abct.org.uk/airfields/airf… abct.org.uk/airfields/airf…

Help save Ossington, as ABCT is already trying to do, from huge new solar farm plans - the local populace not only hugely appreciate their airfield but simply do not want this plan to happen. Deadline for comments Thurs February 20. gnrsolarpark.co.uk abct.org.uk/airfields/airf…

Due to significant general public demand and interest, reposting the BBC article about ABCT and the Director General's involvement from five days ago. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

At the unveiling of a memorial to Pulham Airfield in #Norfolk this morning. It’s one of many being marked by the charity @ABCTlive. You can now see this stone outside the @PennoyerCentre in Pulham St Mary (which also does a mean sandwich!) See more on @BBCLookEast at 1740.

@kirkj07 @PennoyerCentre @BBCLookEast Thanks very much Jenny for your time and interest this morning: please do keep in touch.

With Norfolk still in mind, many thanks to Laura Foster of BBC News for this excellent article about how ABCT's Kenneth Bannerman became involved with Britain's airfields 51 years ago and his eventual forming of the world's first national airfield charity. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
