The Forties supplement (The Argus, July 2) was excellent.
Sir Peter Scott was someone else who was trained at HMS King Alfred and was even on permanent staff there for a while.
One thing made me chuckle, which I must correct. You kept calling the flying station at Tangmere an "airport". These are, of course, for civilian passengers and cargo.
The RAF have flying, fighterm or bomber stations, although they tend to be called bases now - but not airports.
And during the Second World War, Shoreham Airport became an RAF station for not six years but five.
