This amazing colour photograph reproduced from its original black and white image
by John Ward, President, 49 Squadron Association shows LM 439 J - Jig2 and her
dedicated ground crew at the Lancasters dispersal at the far South Western end of
the airfields ‘A’ Flight line. The tree line on the horizon is the Reepham to Fiskerton
road which was closed during the airfields operational life. Directly below J - Jig2
nose is where the present day nuclear bunker occupied by Primtake would be
constructed in the 1960’s. Fiskerton village is to the right behind the Lancaster in the
far right distance.
As John Ward commented, “What I would give to have been there snow or no snow”.
So would we all!.
