Old Sarum?

edit

This article has me a bit confused, but perhaps someone can explain, and perhaps modify the article so that the meaning is more apparent. The article states the squadron was disbanded in 1919, but reformed at "Old Sarum" in 1924. The only "Old Sarum" I know is an archaeological site. Why was an RAF squadron reformed at an iron age hillfort? Eastcote (talk) 20:39, 4 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

There is actually a grass aerodrome at Old Sarum, used by the Royal Flying Corps during WW1. There is still an interesting museum nearby. Militum professio scriniarii (talk) 01:41, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
