Big Skies Over Lincolnshire

There can be no doubt that Lincolnshire is a Royal Air Force county, having had operational airfields even before the RAF was founded in 1918.
The pictures in this book have, in the main, been taken at RAF Scampton, RAF Waddington and the Royal Air Force College, at Cranwell.
Any tribute to the services would be incomplete without a look at some of the many memorials around the county to remember those who lost their lives in the service of their country.

ABOUT THE AUTHORS

In 1956, Peter Washbourn joined the staff of the Lincolnshire Echo as a photographic printer. Four years later, he met Patricia Roberts and a few weeks after this meeting, started working as a photographer in the Editorial department at the Echo.
Pat, a qualified typist, changed her place of work soon after their first meeting, so they both had a new beginning,
At the start of 2000, Peter began to compile another column for the Echo, Lincolnshire in the News and in this he was aided by Pat, who helps with the copying of the stories and typing up the final version for the column.
Now, they have worked together again to produce this volume. They have lived for almost 40 years in the shadow of the Royal Air Force, their home is under the flight circuit for RAF Waddington and one of their sons is a chef in the RAF, having served at Stanbridge, Cranwell and Waddington.
