Click once on image to view RAF Chapple is a model of a WW2 RCAF
Fighter Base around 1941/42 (based on RAF Warmwell),
when the Royal Canadian Air Force was testing the first
Hurricane planes to be fitted with 250lb bombs that were
used against enemy shipping and airbases. They flew as
402 Squadron, which became 175 Squadron before they left
England for Foreign Service. The Base has a remaining
narrow gauge railway left after construction of new
hangers and Nissan huts. This is being used to move
personnel and equipment around the site and supplying
fuel and armament to re-fuelling pits, hangers,
workshops and storage areas. The layout is being
detailed with many aircraft, and further fine detail
each month. It will have two changeable areas so that
the scene can be varied.
