Hockley Heath X3HC (A)

Just saw this website. We were housed at RAF Hockley Heath at the end of WW2. My younger brother David was born on the airfield on 26th August 1947 and we moved into newly constructed council houses in Bentley Heath soon thereafter. Our father used to take us back to the airfield during the early 1950s to fly model aircraft on the disused site, although if I recollect correctly, it became part of Goode's Farm. Maybe the airfield had some influence on our future, David became a Gulfstream 5 pilot among many other types, and I joined the Fleet Air Arm in 1961. I still fly model aircraft to this day, although they are now radio controlled.
