MONITOR WCIT Secret Airfield Visit O n May 11th a number of WCIT members paid a visit to the Secret Airfield, in the grounds of the home of Merlin, The Earl of Erroll. From here hundreds of flights were made over occupied Europe to deliver (by parachute) the SOE agents and their equipment. The RAF also flew Lysanders into France to collect agents from makeshift landing-grounds. Within the airfield there is a museum showcasing the many courageous agents who carried out these hazardous missions and the visit was highlighted by a wonderful lunch provided by the Countess of Erroll (a cordon bleu chef). We hope to arrange another visit in 2014, so if you’re interested please contact the Government Panel for more information.
