That's quite interesting, thank you mgnv.

if you plough through the 'flights' you can identify areas which may be relevant to you.

Not really geanological, but interesting post from LANCSGEN list
http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/index?list=lancsgen

The following link is advertised in a story in the Daily Mail website (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2164074/Britain-Above-Thousands-historic-aerial-photographs-online-time-today.html ) - regarding a collection of aerial photographs being assembled from the skies of Great Britain. Here's the link to the actual website - http://www.britainfromabove.org.uk/galleries

The photographs contained on it range from 1919 - 1953, cover many counties and also includes a gallery where they are requesting help on identifying where/what some of the pictures are of. This is also an ongoing project which will be updated on a regular basis.
