Air Traffic Control - Feb55.   Except for the caravan on the end of the runway all air traffic control was organized from one place.   When I first arrived all this was from a large Ford Koln lorry parked outside the Flying-wing HQ.   Later Wilbur scrounged enough equipment for us to install what we called the control tower on the first floor of FWHQ.   (Click to see full story.)   This consisted of 3 rooms above the met office shown in this and the next 2 photos.   This picture shows the local airfield control position overlooking the runway.   In the picture you can see that there is snow on the ground outside.   From this position the local controller usually used the local airfield frequency, channel E, to talk to aircraft during take-off and landing.   This frequency was shared with the runway caravan when manned.   It was also possible to talk to aircraft on the Jever approach channel B from this position.   (Thanks to Dick Endecott)
