    I might very well be wrong but Watsonian built sidecars that i belive would be correct, did Norton actualy build sidecars themselves or ere thay supplyed by Watsonian, Dennis Heath motorcycles, fourth cross road Twickenham had loads of that stuff years ago and are still going.

    In 1946 40 Spitfire mk 21s were sent to Shoeburyness, allmost every aircraft had only approxamitly 5 or 6hrs of recorded flight time, doe"s anyone have any info on what happend to these aircraft, photos of them or remember seeing them there. Have looked on google earth all over the ranges nothing showing not to say there is nothing there, can see some tanks and other AFVs near the buildings and have seen a couple of tanks being taken in through the gates last September when we were over visiting our sons 2012. plus the ammo train every Tuesday morning.
