Buffnut453 Posted 22 June , 2019 Share Posted 22 June , 2019 Spich Aerodrome was occupied by RAF units after the Armistice. However, I'm struggling to find the exact location of the aerodrome. Was it the site of modern-day Koln/Bonn Airport? Any pointers would be very much appreciated given that my google-fu is failing me.
