Brian "Tex" Bartingdale

I am trying to trace 3 guys who flew out of the Ossington aerodrome 1943/44; Tex, his real name was Brian Bartingdale, and his friends Nobby and Ginge (he had red hair!). I was about 4 at the time and staying with my aunt, the 'drome was very close by and the guys used to sometimes 'dip their wings' when they flew over the cottage. I would love to find them and tell them I remember the chocolate and doll's tea set! Pure nostalgia and I would like them to know how they added a bit of magic to a little girl's war years.
