Re: Types of revetment in LW airfields

Very, very interesting, Marquis..............I think I can say with near 99% certainty that those two are not of German design from the 1933-45 period. I say this because their design is totally alien to me after looking at many hundreds - even thousands - of aircraft shelters on airfields occupied by the Luftwaffe across all of Europe. These appear on aerial photos and on sketches made from the aerial photos by section A.I.2.(b) of the wartime British Air Ministry. This section's files at BNA in London may also contain reports, photos, drawings and interrogation summaries of how they were built too, because I didn't examine every file generated by A.I.2.(b).
