Ghost Stations VII
by Bruce Barrymore HalpennyIn 1990, the
Pearson family, David, his wife Jacquline and
their son Justin, attended the air display at RAF
Finningly in Yorkshire. They are all avid
aviation enthusiasts and go to as many air shows
as possible
always armed with a camera.
"We
go to all air shows we possibly can," said
David, "but our real interest is aviation in
world war two. This is our era, we find it
absolutely fascinating. We all love to go round
abandoned world war two airfields and this has
become part of our way of life. What we see makes
us very sad at times."
At the
RAF Finningly Air Show, David Pearson took many
photographs, one being the Finningly ghost, as
David explains:
"I
took a photograph of an ME109 Bouchon, this being
the Spanish built copy. It was not until eight
months later we noticed the outline of a figure
stood next to it."
Is it
the Finningly ghost caught on camera?"
"We
have had all sorts of comments about it from
friends and other fellow enthusiasts," said
David "ranging from, 'it' may be
superimposed of another photo;' to, 'is it part
of the fence which could have been repaired?'
However, when you look closely the fence posts
have both cast shadows but, the figure has not.
We believe we may have just slipped into one of
those time warps mentioned in your books."
David
Pearson could well be correct
.It could well
be a glimpse into another Time Zone. Can you
explain otherwise? After reading, Is There a
Parallel Dimension? In my Ghost Stations V
book, Charles Humphrey wrote to say:
"I
remember a science lesson in the Thirties at
grammar school in Sussex. Our master was giving
my class a lecture on sound waves. He told us
that our voices would carry on all around the
universe. He further added, if man could invent a
machine to capture these voices it might be
possible one day to pick up the voice of Jesus
Christ
.I leave you to ponder on that
one."
There
are one or two possibilities. Yes, it could well
be a glimpse into another Time Zone. Could it be
one of RAF Finningly's ghosts? (see Ghost
Stations). The body of a wartime crew member
was found in the peat bog just off the main
runway. The body has never been identified, other
than the fact that it was dressed in Polish RAF
uniform. The body was buried at Finningly
Military cemetery. So there could still be a
restless spirit looking for the other crew
members.
Looking
at the photographs one can see that the phantom
figure is the otherside of the chain-link fence
and, as David Pearson said, it does not cast a
shadow, whereas, the two posts do. One can also
make out a hand at the side of the phantom
figure
.It is certainly strange that it does
not cast a shadow, which means, the Finningly
ghost could have been caught on camera. It is a
genuine picture, David Pearson who took the
picture, confirms this.
