The Wolds Historical Organisation web site is hosting a remarkable new free PDF.
This is a detailed history of activities at Wymeswold airfield in the 1950s and 1960s which has been prepared by Richard Knight, who grew up at the western end of the runways.
Most of the information is about the activities of the RAF and Fields Aircraft Services, although there are also lots of previously-unseen photographs taken in the winter of 1944 and during the build up to D-Day, and photographs taken during public open days.
This is available as a free PDF: www.hoap.co.uk/who/raf_wymeswold.pdf.

Back in about 1966-67 I asked a Cambrian captain where DC3 G-AGHS was as I had not seen it for a while. He told me it was at Wymeswold for overhaul. Does anyone have any more information about Cambrian Daks at Wymeswold?
