Substantial writing up undertaken, needs further work on WWII operations. Pandaplodder ( talk) 13:14, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
For some period after the war, certainly in 1957, new recruits would go there to pick up the kit, and sign on the dotted line, before being sent to RAF Bridgnorth for square bashing 2.28.218.110 ( talk) 15:46, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
RAF Cardington was in use for this one week of recruit induction at least as early as July 1953. Apart from RAF Bridgenorth, eight weeks of square bashing then followed in at least two other RAF stations, Hednesford and Wilmslow (though the latter might only have been for WRAFs). In July 1953 there were personnel in RAF uniform working inside one of the hangars, training or practising in the inflation of a WW2-style barrage balloon.

The picture to the right shows both sheds at RAF Cardington. I think it might be useful illustration, perhaps for the infobox? Nev1 ( talk) 20:01, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi all, this page name is misleading as the site is now known as Cardington Airfield. You can see this in the official addresses of the businesses currently within the hangars (Cardington Studios in Hangar 1 and Hybrid Air Vehicles in Hangar 2)Postcode MK42 0TG. [1]. There is also a government petition that refers to Cardington Airfield but the link is not allowed here so you will have to Google. There will be a lot of interest in the area this summer when the Airlander 10 takes its First Flight so I thought it would be good to get the name right just now!

Great! I'm not hugely experienced on here. Do we just wait for a few more people to agree and an administrator to pick up on the fact? Philbobagshot ( talk) 15:21, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
Those hangars are damn big, so I'm surprised not to find any idea of the dimensions in the article. Surely well documented somewhere.-- Mrs Wibble-Wobble ( talk) 19:23, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
