    PS Historical note : Although home to South Downs Gliding Club, the airfield is known to have been used in part in ww2 as an emergency / forward landing ground for fighters normally based at Croydon;
    to that end it was unusual in that gliding continued through ww2; the airfield was not 'closed for hostilities' as many were.

    Poor Squadron Leader Canfield; he lost his golf clubs in the Attack!

    That was a pretty crisp Flight Suit Air Marshal Park was sporting when he flew in to check up on his charges!
