One thought on “EGNV Teesside Tower, and RAF Middleton St George, latterly Durham Tees Valley”

  1. In the early sixties the grand plan of the government was that after RAF Middleton St George closed this would become the main airport of north east England. Did anyone think to tell Newcastle council that???
