In this book Peter Gunn brings together many aspects of aviation history in the two counties of Norfolk and Suffolk, chronicled by place-name in alphabetical order. Subjects include airfields, war graves and memorials but also the less obvious aeronautical connections in, for example, country houses, churches, pubs, buildings, streets, and the local stories linked with them. The narrative incorporates descriptions with illustrations and OS grid references and a full index. These counties are bursting with aviation history, having played key roles across two world wars, and this detailed guide will delight both interested locals and aviation enthusiasts.
