Cromarty
CROMARTY: Military seaplane station
Note: Both of these maps and aerial photos were kindly provided by Mr Michael T Holder
Military user: RNAS (Royal Naval Air Service)
Location: Just N of Cromarty town, E of the harbour
Period of operation: 1913 to 1915, also 1917 certainly?
BONUS PICTURE:
Note: This up to date view of the site was also provided by Mike Holder
NOTES: Some years ago I made this note: "I found a record in a 1917 edition of Janes which led me to believe there was also a land based military airfield near Cromarty in 1917 - any ideas?"
It is of course just a guess, but the aerial pictures of 'The Links' above show a very suitable area for land based aircraft to land on.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
