TG528 as a static in The Imperial War Museum Duxford now sporting the colours as when it appeared in the Berlin Airlift, the picture was taken from the balcony in the Air Space hangar and struck off charge by the RAF in January 1968

The Duxford Hastings was my 7th Hastings trip as an ATC Cadet [in 17 days!]

10081953 TG528 2.00 hrs/mins Lyneham-Hawarden-Aston Down-Lyneham [I think the aerodrome callsigns were LA-HD-AD-LA]

Five years ago I received this from Gordon Clack, how is that for a coincidence

Hi John,

I thought one of the trips in your list looked rather familiar so looked up my old logbook for the time and what did I find?:-

10 August 1953 Hastings TG528 Capt. Fg Off Topham

co-pilot Self (Me), Lyneham-Hawarden-Aston Down-Lyneham 2.00 hrs

I can't remember why we went to these places but probably to drop someone off.

What a small world.
