Requests
REQ.1
MikeyF recieved this request and if anyone can add any info please get in touch
"I am currently filling a lot of my time researching for the Vickers Viscount Network and would like to pose a question for perhaps some of your local members of similar age.
A book was recently published by Air Britain on the Viscount, and there is a reference to c/n 265 registered G-AOYP which states that it was painted in Nile Valley Air Services colour scheme and rolled out at Cardiff Airport 11th October 1982. The proposed lease was not subsequently taken up, and it returned to British Air Ferries service. Would you know of anyone who possibly remembers this event, or better still managed to photograph it?
I would be extremely grateful for any information you or your members could provide."
any info please email mikeyf@talktalk.net

REQ4
I was told in the mid 70's of a Heinkel 111 that had come down in the sea off the coast of Gileston during WWII (near the current location of the Power Station). The tail of the aircraft so i'm told could be seen on days when the tide was at it's lowest ..Anyone have any more information about this please ..IanG
