In respect of the anniversary of the Fleet Air Arm, we are pleased to publish these images of the escort carrier HMS Campania. These original images were kindly donated to the Heritage Centre by a well known and respected Newport business man, who wishes to remain anonymous. The images carry the mark of the censor and show the Campania in the North Atlantic and on the Russian convoys. She was responsible for the sinking of two enemy U Boats whilst on convoy duty to Russia.
The flight to Dublin will leave as soon as the pilot arrives on his Bicycle..... This charming 1950s image taken at Manchester Ringway Airport is of an Aer Lingus Wayfarer.We would love to hear from anyone who ever flew in one of these famous aircraft.
