Airfield identification

I have a number of photographs taken at an airshow "in the first half of 1947" which I am assuming is in Southern England. I have posted 3 photos on photobucket showing the prototype Chrislea Ace and Chipmunk and a Tipsy Belfair, all with buildings in the background. can anyone identify the location and event?

Just ressurectig an old thread. Did anyone ever work out where this was? Th second photo is interesting as it looks like a decontamination block in the background and the tower in the right of the last photo looks familiar.

Woodley was also my initial guess - then I thought White Waltham. Don't know beyond that.

Looks like White Waltham to me.

Excellent pics, the Chipmunk is in fact the first prototype (as its clever registration reflects), it arrived in the UK from Canada in Dec '46 and was reassembled and shown at White Waltham in Jan '47.
I'm guessing by the other types being present that this is in fact the opening of the White Waltham Flying Club on April the 27th 1947 which it also attended, however it did also appear at Portsmouth, Lympne, & Southend in the same time frame, it became G-AKEV in August of that year.
That distinctive building to the right in the last shot should clinch it.

As we are on airfield identification try this according to the image its a 83 sqn vulcan, Scampton or Finningley or other???

I think that's Scampton, with the Vulcans parked on the old N-S runway.
There are two small buildings on the runway in about the same spot visible in the current Google Earth view.

All the best,
