Omagh
Note: Some time ago I made this remark: This map only gives the position of Omagh town within the UK. If anybody can kindly provide a more exact location for the airfield, this advice will be most welcome.
In January 2017 I was kindly contacted by Peter Vercruijsse who has given an exact location.
OMAGH: Military later civil (possibly temporary for civil use) aerodrome (Aka STRATHROY)
Military user: RAF Operational Station for anti-Sinn Feign operatons
105 Sqdn (Royal Aicraft Factory RE.8s)
Civil user: CWA Scott’s Flying Displays 1936 Tour
Location: E of the A5, just NNW of Omagh town
Period of operation: Military: 1917 & 1918 only? Some say 1918 to 1919 Civil: 6th June 1936
