Newcastle Airport, Woolsington, 1962
A nostalgic picture taken with a pre-WWII pinhole Box Brownie camera in the days when the airport was a regular cycle ride from home.
The Newcastle Aero Club's club house is on the far right and I think the aircraft is possibly their Piper Tri-pacer. The hangar was still there when I last visited the vastly expanded modern airport terminal on the other side of the extended runway.

Aero Club, Wolsington (Newcastle International Airport)
The Aero Club is now based in the original Wolsington (Newcastle) Airport. [Update Oct 2011 - I have been advised that the building was demolished at the end of 2010. Looking at newspaper archives it would also appear that the Aero Club went into liquidation although I'm not sure, at this time, if it still exists!]
