Title:
RAF St Eval, Cornwall (1948/1950).
Set 1
A long time ago I spent almost two years in 203 sqn as a Flight Mechanic (Engines).
As the local bus approached the airfield I could hardly believe they were giving me
those lovely Lancasters to play with, and immaculate white ones at that. Life for
the ground crews wasn't bad at all, except we couldn't balance the personal budget.
Here is a record of those grand (mostly) days at St Eval.
