You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.205.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 11:06, 19 October 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''RAF Tatenhill''' is a former [[Royal Air Force]] satellite airfield in [[Tatenhill]], [[Staffordshire]], England, ((Convert|4|NM|abbr=on|lk=in)) west of [[Burton on Trent]]. It was originally known as ''RAF Crossplains''.<ref>((cite web|title=Tatenhill (Burton-on-Trent)|url=http://www.abct.org.uk/airfields/airfield-finder/tatenhill-burton-on-trent/|website=Airfields of Britain Conservation Trust|accessdate=30 July 2016))</ref>

==History==
The field was built in 1941 as a satellite for [[No. 27 OTU|No. 27 Operational Training Unit RAF]] (OTU) at [[RAF Lichfield]] later becoming a satellite airfield for RAF Wheaton Aston.<ref>((PastScape|num=929224|desc=Tatenhill Airfield|accessdate=30 July 2016))</ref> The design was the [[Class A airfield|wartime RAF standard]] of three co-intersecting runways, east-west, north-south diagonal. The east-west runway was the only one suitable to safely accommodate bomber take off and landings (((convert|1,600|yd))) which hampered its operability.((sfn|Delve|2007|p=305))

It was used as a bomber crew training field, which continued in varied training functions until 1944 with [[Vickers Wellington]], [[Airspeed Oxford]] and [[Avro Anson]] aircraft for [[RAF Bomber Command]]. Later a single engine training unit arrived using the [[Miles Master]] aircraft. It was then used by the [[RAF School of Explosives]] after the disastrous explosion at nearby [[RAF Fauld]], from October 1945 until January 1947.<ref name="CT"/> During the post Second World War period when it was still under RAF Control, RAF Tatenhill was used to break up unused and unwanted ammunition before it was dumped at sea.<ref>((cite news|title=Bygones: Alas! wrote Churchill on report of RAF Fauld blast|url=http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/bygones-alas-wrote-churchill-report-raf-fauld/story-23049332-detail/story.html|accessdate=30 July 2016|work=Derby Telegraph|date=6 October 2014))</ref>

The airfield had a bomb dump on the south-east side and a number of frying pan dispersals were built on land to the north of the B5234 road, with hangars in this area too.((sfn|Delve|2007|p=303))

==Current use==
The airfield remains in use as [[Tatenhill Airfield]]. A wartime [[Bellman hangar]] remains in use as of 2013.
