Often regarded as a quiet holiday county, in fact Dorset has many
aviation connections. As early as 1908 Bleriots were being built by
Bournemouth businessmen, the Royal Navy undertook first landing on
a warship at Weymouth in 1910, the Schneider Race was held at
Bournemouth in 1913, Dorset was at the front line of the early days
of the Battle of Britain with attacks on Portland Naval Base, the
Dam Busters bouncing bomb was tested on Dorset ranges in 1943, and
aircraft production factories at Christchurch and Bournemouth
existed in the 1940 and 1950s. With a wealth of previously
unpublished images, Mike Phipp tells this remarkable story.
