I don't have a copy of "A Time to Fly" which has the dates of the National Aviation Day Display for May 1932. Can anyone help, please? |

I've found a reference in the Flight International archive that suggests the display visited Lawford Heath (and Rugby)on May 14th. See the bottom of the page on http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1932/1932%20-%200422.html |

Thanks Tony D for the info which ties in with the half identified photo EPW037862 I would really value your input on my suggestion regarding this location. Does it pass muster? |

Thanks - not sure why you can't pin this one with the proposed NGR, so I've made a note for myself. We've only just completed a set of revisions, shortly to be uploaded, which unfortunately this image has missed - so it'll be dealt with towards the end of April. Yours,Katy |
