White Waltham to Old Buckenham

On a beautiful Saturday morning in June 2015, I flew with some American friends to Duxford for a short visit and then on to Old Buckenham for a spot of lunch.

At Duxford, we were asked to park next to the “B17”, otherwise known as the Memphis Belle…not the original, but the aircraft that starred in the film “Memphis Belle”. Old Buckenham had been a US airbase during WW2.

The actors, James Stewart and Walter Matteau had been based there while serving in the US Airforce.
