<p>RAF Wick was a station located in the far north of Scotland 11 miles (18 kms) south of John O’Groats.<br /><br /><a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=RAF+Wick" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>See all Archive items</strong></a> | <strong><a href="https://losses.internationalbcc.co.uk/?takeoff-stations=Wick&forename=&initials=&surname=&select-search-options%5B%5D=surname&select-search-options%5B%5D=initials&select-search-options%5B%5D=forename&select-search-options%5B%5D=takeoff-stations&_token=ByvqGNzS4dmNYkvmfapCX6PzsJKdRpgFuIFnGOQG&losses_form=7f8a0f6148&orderby=surname&order=asc">Wartime losses</a> </strong>| <strong><a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/neatline/fullscreen/places#records/6398">Explore nearby</a></strong><br /><br /></p>
<p>RAF Wick opened in 1939 initially under the joint ownership of <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?advanced%5B0%5D%5Belement_id%5D=38&advanced%5B0%5D%5Btype%5D=is+exactly&advanced%5B0%5D%5Bterms%5D=Royal+Air+Force.+Fighter+Command" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fighter</a> and <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?advanced%5B0%5D%5Belement_id%5D=38&advanced%5B0%5D%5Btype%5D=is+exactly&advanced%5B0%5D%5Bterms%5D=Royal+Air+Force.+Coastal+Command" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Coastal</a> Commands. During the Battle of Britain the station was used to rotate <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Hurricane" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hurricane</a> and <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Spitfire" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Spitfire</a> squadrons away from the battle to give them respite as well as providing defence for the airfield itself which was attacked. After October 1940 the station was almost exclusively used by Coastal Command aircraft including <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Anson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ansons</a>, Beauforts, <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Hudson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hudsons</a>, <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Beaufighter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Beaufighters</a> and <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Wellington" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wellingtons</a>. <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Photographic+Reconnaissance+Unit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Photo Reconnaissance Unit</a> Spitfires were also stationed at RAF Wick. During 1940-41 Bomber Command detachments of <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/show/6260" target="_blank" rel="noopener">38 Squadron</a> with Wellingtons and <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/show/6264" target="_blank" rel="noopener">50 Squadron</a> with <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Hampden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hampdens</a> used the station.

Description
An account of the resource
<p>RAF Warboys was a Bomber Command station in Cambridgeshire 7 miles (11 kms) north-east of Huntingdon.<br /><br /><a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=RAF+Warboys" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>See all Archive items</strong></a> | <strong><a href="https://losses.internationalbcc.co.uk/?takeoff-stations=Warboys&select-search-options%5B%5D=takeoff-stations&_token=mebTm5EIx2lRCtMWNwpmfHjqV5wzbPtEYox3Hnyq&losses_form=7f8a0f6148&orderby=surname&order=asc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">See all wartime losses</a></strong> | <strong><a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/neatline/fullscreen/places#records/380" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Explore nearby</a></strong></p>
<p>The station opened in August 1942 as part of <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=3+Group" target="_blank" rel="noopener">3 Group</a>. <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=156+Squadron" target="_blank" rel="noopener">156 Squadron</a> moved in with <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Wellington" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wellingtons</a>. However within a month both the station and 156 Squadron were transferred to the new <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=%20Pathfinders" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pathfinder</a> force. Converting to <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Lancaster" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lancasters</a> in January 1943 156 Squadron continued to operate from RAF Warboys until March 1944. RAF Warboys then became a training station for <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=8+Group" target="_blank" rel="noopener">8 Group</a> with its Night Training Unit with Lancasters and 1655 <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=Mosquito" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mosquito</a> Conversion Unit.</p>

<p>The bombing range opened in 1938 and was used extensively during the war for Bomber Command <a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=training" target="_blank" rel="noopener">training</a>. A control tower onshore co-ordinated practice bomb dropping and reported accuracies back to the relevant squadrons and stations. Use of the range continued post war until closure in 2010. The RAF Wainfleet control tower is now used as holiday accommodation.<br /><br />Refinements:<span style="font-size: small;"> </span></p>

<p>RAF Waddington was a Bomber Command station located in Lincolnshire, 3 miles (5 kms) south of Lincoln. <br /><br /><a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=RAF+Waddington" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>See all Archive items</strong></a> | <strong><a href="https://losses.internationalbcc.co.uk/?takeoff-stations=Waddington&select-search-options%5B%5D=takeoff-stations&_token=mebTm5EIx2lRCtMWNwpmfHjqV5wzbPtEYox3Hnyq&losses_form=7f8a0f6148&orderby=surname&order=asc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">See all wartime losses</a></strong> | <strong><a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/neatline/fullscreen/places#records/378" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Explore nearby</a> </strong><br /><br />It originally opened in 1916 and subsequently reopened in March 1937.

<p>RAF Upwood was a Bomber Command station located in Cambridgeshire 7 miles (11 kms) north of Huntingdon.<br /><br /><a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/items/browse?tags=RAF+Upwood" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>See all Archive items</strong></a> | <strong><a href="https://losses.internationalbcc.co.uk/?takeoff-stations=Upwood&select-search-options%5B%5D=takeoff-stations&_token=mebTm5EIx2lRCtMWNwpmfHjqV5wzbPtEYox3Hnyq&losses_form=7f8a0f6148&orderby=surname&order=asc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">See all wartime losses</a></strong> | <strong><a href="https://ibccdigitalarchive.lincoln.ac.uk/omeka/neatline/fullscreen/places#records/390" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Explore nearby</a></strong></p>
<p>Originally opened in 1916 RAF Upwood re-opened in 1937.
