DY03 we think this too is Yeovilton, with the Sea Vixens of 892 squadron in the early 60s?

DY15 dated 1956
DY13 has 3 x ‘C ‘ type hangars so is not Yeovilton; I believe it’s Lossiemouth.
I’m a bit dubious about DY14 too; if they’ve had a new tower built on the south side, fair enough but otherwise I think it might be Chivenor.

Thanks Terry

I’ve moved DY13 to the Lossie post. DY14 is the new Yeovilton tower https://www.cpmg-architects.com/architecture/projects/rnas-yeovilton-atc

I was a visitor here in 1992 for the airshow. I must admit to giving a sailor a bit of grief at the ATC display in one of the hangars. It was over the long running saga of the Fleet Air Arm(and that includes RN ATC) of not using ZULU time!

Just spotted the Sea Harrier picture DY01. That is most certainly not Yeovilton, it is in fact Leuchars.
