Martlesham Heath The story of the Royal Air Force Station 1917-1973
Suffolk: Terence Dalton, 1975. Small quarto, original cloth, 264 pp., illustrated. A fine copy in a fine dust-jacket. Martlesham Heath, near Ipswich in Suffolk, could justly claim to be one of the cradles of British aviation. From 1917, when R.A.F. Station was opened to house the Experimental Aircraft Flight, through its golden years of the 1920s and early 1930s, until the outbreak of the Second World War, Martlesham was a testing establishment for aircraft, engines and equipment, both military and civil.
