NOTES: In AAIB reports published in 2007 and 2008 this strip was called UCKFIELD FARM but on the CAA half-mil chart it is named UPFIELD FARM. In fact a map of the area used in the AAIB report EW/C2007/06/01 clearly shows that the AAIB themselves have marked the strip as UPFIELD FARM! Pick the bones out of that if you would be so kind - and please let me know the answer.
