RUSTINGTON: Temporary aerodrome (Aka BROADMARK FARM)
Note: The two maps were kindly supplied by Mr Michael T Holder.
The third and fourth pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©
Operated by: Sir Alan Cobham's National Aviation Day No.2 Tour
Location: Just E of Liitlehampton town centre
Period of operation: 15th August 1933
NOTE: Those who have also studied this period might have noticed that at least one other published source states that the display was held at FORD aerodrome. Which was of course the base for Cobham's National Aviation Day Ltd.
Mike Holder has found an article in the West Sussex Gazette, published on the 17th August, which clearly talks about the noisy arrival of the Cobham aerial entourage from Eastbourne on the 15th.
