Iron rusts from disuse; water loses its purity from stagnation... even so does inaction sap the vigour of the mind.

blue Red writing: Countryside Books, Date: 2008. Paperback. Used: Acceptable. Condition good, clean. This book offers a fully illustrated and exciting account of the part played by Cheshire's airfields during the Second World War. The history of each airfield is described, including details about the squadrons and aircraft based at them and the operations flown. The subject is brought vividly to life with evocative accounts, alongside photos of the aircraft from the time. Cheshire's contribution to the war effort was massive and it began well before the outbreak of hostilities in September 1939. The aircraft manufacturing firms of AV Roe and Fairey Aviation based at Ringway and Woodford, and the Vickers-Armstrong factory nearby, built many war-time fighters and bombers, including the mighty Lancasters and Wellingtons, Avro Ansons and Bristol Blenheims. The county's airfields played an increasingly active part in defending the giant Cammell Laird shipbuilding yards at Birkenhead, the vital docks and the city of Liverpool, and industrial Manchester from Luftwaffe bombing raids. At the outbreak of war Ringway was joined by Hooton Park as an operational airfield. Later, six more were built: Calveley, Stretton, Poulton, Cranage, Little Sutton and Tatton Park. The training of aircrews was also a priority. They included RAF pilots and navigators, reconnaissance personnel, radio direction finders, glider pilots, Royal Navy pilots and parachutists. Ringway was home to ...
