Hatfield Aerodrome From The Air
In July 2008 a number of photographs of the site of the former aerodrome at Hatfield, Hertfordshire were taken for the de Havilland Aeronautical Technical School Association. A selection is presented in this article, preceded by some older images for comparison.

- 30 Sep 10 21:35 Roger Fisher from Birchwood, Hatfield.
- As a Hatfield born and bred resident, who had a father, sister and brother who all worked at DH's, I viewed your web site with pleasure and would compliment you on it. However, on reading your "from the air" article I note an error on the caption for the picture on page 4. The caption reads that the farm in the background is Birchwood Farm - not so - it is probably Harpsfield but is most definitely not Birchwood, which lay to the east of the, now A1(M), off the road now called Longmead. I hope this helps Best wishes, Roger Fisher. YOU ARE CORRECT. IT IS HARPSFIELD HALL AND SINCLAIR'S FARM IN THE DISTANCE. WE HAVE AMENDED THE CAPTION. THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT.
