Lt Desmond Arthur was killed in a flying accident on 27 May 1913, his spirit is said to have haunted the officers' mess. Since then there have been many other claimed sightings of apparitions in pilots' uniforms and phantom planes. In 1940 the pilot of a hurricane was comeing in to land when he was “cut of” by a B.E.2 biplane, the same type that arthur had flow. Stragely none of the grounds crew had seen the biplane. In 2010 it was claimed wartime music and speech was heard to come from a 70-year-old radio which was "not powered in any way".
