Report - RAF Thurleigh Airfield - Bedfordshire - October 2018

Explore:
Finding a spot to park was harder then gaining access to the abandoned RAF Thurleigh base, there are active parts attached at the edge however you can entre discretely and unnoticed.
The main runway is used as storage for 15,000 unsold/unwanted cars and many of these have been sat rotting for many years which is a shame as some of them are beautiful cars and some may easily be restored. On the other hand the Control Tower is completely abandoned however is not in the best condition as the elements have manged to get in and reek havoc but still very aesthetic.

Nice take on the place. Some classics there.

Hey mate, is it one of those places where if you sneak in theres no problems and you can walk around freely or do you have people walking around?
