Welcome to Devon Lad. I am a private pilot based at the former RAF Bolt Head near Salcombe in South Devon. We have a small flying club here and our grass runway of 600 metres runs alongside the old wartime runway. I own and fly a Luscombe 8A which was built in 1946 and from this aircraft I often film the local area. My main interest is the local history of which is very evident here even after 80 years. I look at many wartime flights that took place here between 1941 and 1946. Close by we also have a Cold War R6 Bunker which was built in 1951 for the RAF Radar and the became a Regional Seat of Government before closing in 1994. The Salcombe area of the UK has a stunning coastline which I show in my films. I normally upload weekly . See you soon please subscribe.
