RAF Binbrook

Royal Air Force Binbrook or RAF Binbrook was a Royal Air Force station, now closed, located near Binbrook, Lincolnshire, England. The old domestic site has been renamed to become the village of Brookenby. RAF Binbrook was primarily used by Bomber Command in World War II. The Central Fighter Establishment moved to Binbrook from RAF West Raynham between 1959 and 1962 and two Lightning squadrons were stationed there between 1965 and 1988.

RAF Binbrook was opened as a Bomber Command station in June 1940 during the Second World War and home to No. 12 Squadron RAF, with Vickers Wellington Mk II and III, between 3 July 1940 and 25 September 1942 before it moved to RAF Wickenby. Another squadron stationed at Binbrook before 1942 was 142, with the Fairey Battle, from 3 July 1940 to 12 August 1940 and from 6 September 1940 to 26 November 1941 when it moved to RAF Waltham. The squadron used the Battle until November 1940 before switching to the Wellington Mk II.
