Where is this, BTW?


Hi, Paul,

Spadeadam was the place our own Blue Streak rocket was tested way back
(1960's?). Rocket WD40 originated during that project as far as I know.

It's in Cumbria, close to the Northumberland border - Hadrian's Wall
area and about 1,000ft amsl. I think it's still RAF.


Thanks.
