Great video of USAAF Field Honington in UK WWII

Mon Nov 23, 2015 5:01 pm

This is a neat "homemade movie" taken at HONINGTON Army Airfield in the U.K. late 44-45.
Shots of 17s, 24s, B-26, some fighters, vehicles, personnel. A massive boneyard, some crash footage. About 30 mins long. Worth watching.

Worked for me! Thanks for sharing Lightninglover, neat stuff.

PS - The B-17 footage at the end is VERY interesting. Anybody know exactly what's going on there? Drone conversion possibly?

I think we had a previous thread on this film? Anyway, a while back I combined two stills to get this full image of B-26F 42-96295:

I like the shots of the jeep and the Norseman.
