Norfolk and Suffolk are bursting with aviation heritage, having played key roles in military aviation through the two world wars and beyond. Notable landmarks include airfields past and present, traces of former radar stations, decoy airfields and other sites which were once highly secretive. Churches, memorials and museums provide abundant evidence, but less obvious connections are to be found in country houses, local pubs, streets and even village signs. All are explored in unprecedented detail by this knowledgeable local author. With illustrations, OS grid references and a full index, this definitive reference guide to the two counties, both in the air and on the ground, will delight interested locals and aviation enthusiasts alike.
