Sign of the times Jack :-(

IMHO a radiosonde station at Hemsby (03496) would still be very

I would also include all the others that have disappeared, like
Stornoway, Shanwell, Long Kesh, Aughton, Shoeburyness and the 'on
request' ascents which were done at several RAF stations.

And don't forget the soundings from OWS "India", "Juliette" and "Kilo"
- and even the Bismuth flights (but I'm really showing my age there!).
