| A ghostly B17 is said to land on the old airstrip from time to time, the police have been called out many times by people thinking it is a drug run but have seen or heard nothing. There is also a misty figure that appears on one of the hardstands. And thanks to Duncan, who saw a silver B17 flying very low over the airfield last year in daylight, which then suddenly vanished. We are researching into which aircraft this was? Sounds of heavy bomber engines have also been heard. |

| There are a number of ghosts here. We would like to thank our friends at the USAF Military Police for most of the information. A ghostly airman has been seen running near the runway it is said to be the ghost of an Australian airman killed when his bomber crashed near the runway. A piot died in the early 80's when he inadvertantly ejected from his aircraft and hit the roof of a concrete shelter at 200 mph plus. One of his favourites is to approach you and ask for a cigarette. He will stand and speak to you while he smokes for as long as you don't take your eyes off him, once you do he disappears, leaving the half smoked cigarette on the floor.. Other ghosts include the phantom controllers in the old WW2 control tower, ghostly figures have also been seen walking around the top railing. There are also a number of other ghosts seen in the area of the old tower including a black coloured mist said to be a "bad" spirit, |

| We thank Dave for sending in this report!! I was based there 1987/88 and heard a few reports of a haunting in the "old" control tower. Many a time a driver sitting alone near the tower would say that he had seen a face at the window or heard footsteps on the spiral stairs that leads to the top of the tower. One driver heard the footsteps and thought it was his mate "messing about" so he climbed the stairs to the top room but saw no one! Another incident is about Flying officer English who was a phantom pilot on 56 f sqn. He was flying his own private aircraft when something went wrong and he crashed into "hardened aircraft shelter 12" and was killed. A few of the airmen based within 56 sqn working near the shelter have reported noises and sightings believed to be from the dead Flying officer English. |
