This is the view today of Exeter Airport from the vicinity of the wartime Battle HQ. It gives some idea of the all encompassing view of the airfield of RAF Exeter an observer in the BHQ would have had during the Second World War. In the foreground is an old Nissen style hut used by Polish aircrew during the war. START: Image
