The Ghost of RNAS Fearn: Scotland's Forgotten WWII Airbase

Описание: Deep in the Scottish Highlands, the decaying remains of RNAS Fearn (also known as HMS Owl) stand as a silent testament to Britain's naval history.

In this video, we explore the abandoned site of this former Royal Naval Air Station. Originally opened in 1941, the base became a vital training ground for the Fleet Air Arm, hosting legendary aircraft like the Fairey Swordfish, Barracuda, and Grumman Avenger. At its peak, over 3,000 personnel worked here, honing the skills that would eventually help sink the German battleship Bismarck.

In this video, you’ll see:
