Aero-Linx!
Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough,
if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows
us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not
that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often
hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts
confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this
is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat
sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to
ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the
sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new
spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into
cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via
Aero-Linx.
Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always
welcome, as well.
Aero-Linx: Friends of Leiston
Airfield
The 'Friends of Leiston Airfield' was formed in the summer of
1995 by Peter Saunders, Chris Betson and the late Peter Barker,
after a group of people with holiday caravans on the 'Cakes &
Ale Park', had become concerned that a small memorial erected on a
hardstand in an area hidden from view from the general public, had
become neglected. After several meetings it was agreed the name of
the association would be the 'Friends of Leiston Airfield',
and the Constitution states that the objects are: "To preserve and
develop the history of Leiston Airfield, Station 373, by forging
and maintaining links with associations representing former
military personnel. Erecting a Memorial and Information Point on
Leiston Airfield in the vicinity of Harrow Lane to all who served
on the Airfield during it's operational life, and in particular to
those who lost their lives on active service. To fund and maintain
the Mustang replica sited on the Cakes and Ale Caravan Park, and
such other activities as shall from time to time be approved by the
Committee."
