That was the one I thought nobody would get, but I forgot It was HMS Sembang. The choppers from the carriers used it a lot, whereas the fixed-wingers used RAF Changi, RAF Seletar or another one whose name escapes me. |

Ray, I must correct you, it was Culdrose, not Helston. Near Helston I grant you, but called Culdrose. |

Sorry Arthur you seem to have spoilt Ray's bit of Fun, The RNAS Stations I have listed were the ones I have actually visited, and I think that was the gist of Rays entry, I have been to the place you mentioned of 100's of RNAS going way back. |
