LEEDS, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1945
R.A.F. SHOWS THE NORTH ITS SECRETS
Thousands Visit Aerodromes for Anniversary At Home
From “Yorkshire Post” Correspondents
By bus, car, cycle, and on foot, thousands flocked to Northern aerodromes on Saturday to see features of the R.A.F.’s work and equipment which only a month or two ago were closely guarded secrets.
For six years they had watched from a distance these R.A.F. stations spreading their runways like the tentacles of a giant octopus over the county’s broad acres. Often they had speculated on what was going on behind the barbed wire barricades.
On Saturday, the anniversary of the greatest victory in the Battle of Britain, they were allowed for the first time since1939 to pass the sentries, at some of them without challenge, roam at will through the hangers and into control towers, and clamber into bombers to whose roar they had listened when they were setting out not so long ago on missions to occupied France, the Ruhr, and other parts of Europe.
Conducted the Family
The R.A.F. were “At Home,” and they entered into the spirit of the occasion with an enthusiasm which ensured for the visitors every facility in their tour of the stations. For some airmen there was the personal pride and satisfaction of being able to show wives and sweethearts details of their work, the “kites” in which they have flown, and features of the station buildings. Others took pleasure in explaining to attentive audiences the valuable work of Radar, the intricacies of the Lancaster, Halifax and Mosquito, and the hundred and one other technical details that have absorbed their attention during the war years.
Children had the time of their lives. At Driffield R.A.F. station, the huge bombers attracted them like magnets. They crowded into the Halifaxes and Lancasters, spoke to each other over the “inter-com,” sampled the pilot’s and air gunners’ seats, and fired a ceaseless stream of questions about the various instruments at the officers and N.C.O.s.
Among the bombers drawn up for inspection was Rosie, a veteran of many operational flights, whose mascot was gaily painted on the ‘plane’s nose.
Other ‘planes on view included the Dakota, a Stirling, Wellington, Mosquito, a glider and tug and a Spitfire.
88 Heinkels Came
Evidence of the daylight raid on this station on August 15, 1940, when it was becoming one of the most vital bomber bases, was still to be seen in a partly demolished building. A force of 88 Heinkel bombers were detailed to wipe out Driffield as a bomber base, but 33 were shot down into the North Sea and along the Yorkshire coast before they could reach their objective.
The base was not completely saved, for 169 bombs of various calibre were dropped on the airfield, two of the hangars were damaged, and a 1,000-pounder demolished part of the officers’ mess, where pilots were sleeping after a night raid.
The whole station was moved to an airfield near Thirsk while repairs were being carried out, but in May, 1941, Driffield became fully operational again, and bombers from there took part in most of the subsequent major raids on Germany and occupied territory. It has now become a transport station.
This is the present role also of the Holme-on-Spalding Moor station, near Market Weighton, another of the centres open to the public on Saturday. Over 400 cars were parked at this station at one period, and the visitors during the day totalled nearly 2,000. In addition to inspecting varying types of ‘planes and equipment, visitors here had the added attraction of seeing normal training going ahead.
Transport Command aircraft fly more than 50,000,000 miles a year on trunk and feeder services. It has ferried more than 27,000 aircraft across the Atlantic, and over 8,000 through the Mediterranean route to Russia, Malta, Italy and other fronts.
At the Holme station, formerly an important base in turn for Lancasters, Halifaxes and Hurricanes, new crews are being trained to fly the Dakotas used in this Command. Visitors saw the ‘planes taking off and circling the airfield, and in the control tower they heard messages being received from the aircraft and instructions being given about landing.
10,000 at Finningley
It is estimated that 10,000 visited Bomber Command instructors’ school at Finningley, near Doncaster.
One of the finest stations of its kind in the country, Finningley was an operational training school until last Christmas, when the Air Ministry felt the need for a standardised method of “putting over” lines of instruction to flying students. It was decided to set up schools where instructors could be taught fixed lines of instruction.
Finningley, because of its ideal layout and living accommodation, was one of those chosen for conversion, and 2,000 students have passed through the school.
The Coastal Command aerodrome at Thornaby was probably the most popular. There the attendance was 40,000.
Yesterday wreaths were laid on local cenotaphs in memory of airmen killed in the Battle of Britain.
Nearly 7,000 people visited the Middleton St. George aerodrome, near Darlington now an operational training centre for light bomber crews. They subscribed more than £150 for R.A.F. charities.
The aerodrome at Leeming, on the Great North Road, was the only R.C.A.F. station to hold an open day. Three thousand visitors were given a close-up view of ‘planes which during the war they saw merely as specks in the sky. Many lined the runways to see the take-offs when a practical display was given, among them children, who were handed sweets and ices by the Canadians.

Ode to the skies [underlined] – Up There. [/underlined]
Up there we speed amongst the clouds, Whose billowing shrouds absorb the sounds Emitted with the smoke & flame, From our steed – the aeroplane.
Up there we travel in between Great towering banks of pure white screen. Truly – Castles in the Air, Whose beauty takes your breath, - up there.
Up there we sit and let our gaze Wander in a cloudy maze, And think ’tis shame that Beauty reigns – But seen by us, in aeroplanes
Up there we roam in sunlit sky, A world apart for those who fly. Whilst men upon the surface lurk In cold November’s fog and murk.
Up there unfolds the beauteous night, The moon in all her glorious might, The stars undimmed by Autumns mist, The distant hills by sunset kissed.
[page break]
Up there and now the early dawn Begins to herald in the morn. Long ‘ere earthly man’s aware The rays are lighting us, - up there

[underlined] To my beloved Sally [/underlined]
Sweet Sally how I miss your loving charm, The feel of you, your hand upon my arm; Your sweet warm breath upon my eager lips; The lovely imperfection of your hips.
Dear Sally how I love your flaxen hair; The breath of Spring about you everywhere. The soft light melting on your smooth white skin, The gentle perfume of your lovely skin.
Hey Sally I can’t say how much I miss The exquisite trembling of your tender kiss; The thrill of sensing your dear lips on mine, My body pressed into the warmth of thine.
Fair Sally how I love your eyes to show That feeling of such tenderness I know; That lovliness [sic] those perfect lids conceal, But opened such a wealth of charm reveal.
Sweet Sally within those slender arms entwined Is our love’s great [indecipherable word] defined. Such moments in their sweet embrace exist, I could not, - if I wanted to, resist.
[page break]
Oh Sally that we two should ever part Not always hand in hand and heart to heart, That this should happen darling, never fear, I’ll fight the very Gods to keep you near.
- Finningley Dec. 1939.
[page break]
[underlined] To – a Love, - a requeim [sic] [/underlined]
We met, we saw, we noticed, In times of strain, of strife. Our paths ran close together, Sweet moment in a life. Tis not for me to wonder Why paths should so converge, And enter realms of beauty Then suddenly emerge.
Nor ‘tis for me to question The fancies of the Fates, Who play their human playthings Behind their golden gates. But rather should I show my thanks For moments far too rare, For seconds in this passing hour Too lovely to compare.
‘Tis better for to love and lose, Than never know that bliss, That height to which you raised me In the heaven of your kiss. And so I thank thee Sally, For moments we embraced, And look towards the future Which can better now be faced.
[page break]
For though our paths diverge again, That fleeting instant showed, A world of such complexity, - Of magic yet untold; A world if I’d not known thee Would still be dull and bare, But having met thee dearest I’ll so much better fare.
And so into a memory So sweet, your presence parts, But say not that we wasted Those hours near our hearts. For memories we have Dear, That I’d not give away, For all the worlds sweet treasures Could never mine repay.
Finningley. March. 1940.
[page break]
[underlined] To Ann. [/underlined]
I saw you vaguely one vague day Not thinking that again we’d meet, But I felt your impression stay, - Oh Ann, - I found you very sweet.
I found beneath your face of calm, Shown with bold trust and openly, - A world of gay and subtle charm, Oh Ann, - how much I’d give for thee.
I write and see your face appear – You’re in my thoughts so constantly, Your voice in every sound I hear, Oh Ann, - I pray thee smile on me. –
Cottesmore, June 1941

[underlined] Ode to an invitation [/underlined]
Come, give me your lips fair Pamela, give me your lips, Let their ripeness be mine fair Pamela, - so sweetly mine. Keep not their fair sweet freshness yourself Keep not their joy and fragrant wealth, - Give me your lips fair Pamela, - so sweetly thine.
Come, give me your hand sweet Pamela, give me your hand, Place its’ smallness in mine fair Pamela, sweetly in mine. Hold not its’ sweetness in solitude Hold not its’ fairness and beautytude [sic], - Give me your hand sweet Pamela, give me your hand.
Come, give me your self fair Pamela, give me your self, To love and to hold sweet Pamela, to hold and to love. Keep not your purity obscure, Keep [deleted] [indecipherable] [/deleted] your goddesslike [sic] allure – But give me your Self fair Pamela, give me your Self

[underlined] To Kay, as Love appeared. [/underlined]
In all Her bountiful and queenly grace arrayed Views from high Olympus Earthwards strayed, And gave Her blessing. Thus enchanted she Did bid me kneel and pledge my faith to thee.
Uncalled unthought [sic] of, unexpected came That sweet sensation; with a name So often lipped unmeaningly [sic], yet far above All other words, - sweet Love.
Undream’d [sic] of, unexpected happiness Encompassed me, as I perceived that this Ungiven [sic] heart could err no more, Now given to my Katherine’s tender care.
Sagan, August 1943
[page break]
[underlined] To Kay. [/underlined]
Calm moments give to golden thoughts, from thoughts to reverie On untold things in days to come, With Thou and me in harmony.
Such thoughts make life seem beautiful, And seeming, therefore is. What need of other wishes, What more achieve than this?
Sweet Kay, what need to pen these words When all to this succumbs, - Dear when I shall have won thee Life itself a poem becomes.
Sagan, February 1944
