Comment: Found you by accident! looking for
bloodhound info.Worked on Bloodhound at West Raynham, Bawdsy and Wattasham.
Your photo on the help does look like a type 87 the tube between the dishes
is a tracking camera. Anyone seen an RTS2 bomb plotting radar around.It was
my first radar at RAF Lindholme in 1973. |

Comment: I nicely put together site, which brought
back a host of pleasant memories. I served as a National Serviceman, in '58,
59. A year in Locking, and a year in N Germany (296 SU), as a rotors fitter,
on T80 and T13 (Mk V). I still reckon that the RAF training course was the best
training that I ever had. A wonderful sensation, standing at the end of the
top antennae walkway, at night, watching the world go round. |

Comment: Served at RAF Sandwich on early ames
T7/13/14, and then on Rotor T80/FPS3. in the early-mid50's.
Some remnants
still remain especially the HAPPIDROME op blocks. T7 bases are still extant.
Anyone remember the so called UFO experience during exercise ARDENT in
1955?
I also served in 3604 Fighter Control Unit with the R.Aux.a.f. until
disbandment in 1961. |

Comment: Thanks for a great site Dick. I served
in the South African Air Force - airborne radio nav and radar from 1969. Did
service in the old Rhodesia, Namibia (South West Africa) and Angola during the
border wars. Then in the armaments industry and on to the S.A. Weather Service
for the past 18 yrs. Now more involved with weather radars. The notes bring
back memories as I was trained on them. Now I am using them to train my staff
as well. |
