Part one of the story of what happened at Royal Air Force Station Biggin Hill during its final days as an operational fighter station, the proceeding years back to the early 50's and the post military era.This historical Battle of Britain fighter station survived where many other were decommissioned to make room for redevelopment. The closure of London's Croydon Airport gave birth to a new generation of both private and commercial pilots on this hallowed ground and created a unique training and social environment that flourished for many years. This publication seeks to record some of the people and their aircraft that facilitated this transition together with a celebration of the success of one individual who turned his dreams into reality. Part two, to be published 2015, completes the story of one aviation enthusiast and private pilot. Joseph J. merchant
