| Hi all, <br/> I just wondered if I could share my experience of this Sunday just passed when I ventured onto the airfield at Deenethorpe. Apart from my military service I have lived in the vicinity of the airfield all my life, driven passed it more times than I can remember but never been onto it. Well now that I have developed an interest in the 401st I thought it was time for that to change.<br/> So armed with an ordnance survey map, rucksack, boots and binoculars and some sound advice off I went. I decided I would stay with the marked bridleways and footpaths of which there are a couple through the airfield. Well I soon discovered thanks to some new County Council signage that a great deal of the perimeter track is in fact public bridleway, game on. Starting from Deenethorpe village in the North East off I went all the way round to the 05 end of the main runway, no problems. After here though the footpath wanders off through the crops and is well trodden and marked but as I had come to see concrete and bricks I carried on around the track ending up at the old technical site. Here there are many buildings still standing link trainer, flight offices etc, see Paul Young <br/><br/>improvise, adapt, overcome<br/>

| No problem at all Paul, there were a couple of folk in there who looked like owners/employees and they just ignored me even though we made eye contact, maybe I look dogdier than I thought!!!!!! <br/><br/>improvise, adapt, overcome<br/>
