Around the time of the Domesday Book in 1086 the village's toponym was Norton, being the north tun (Old English for village) of Bampton. In 1235 the form Suthnorton ("South Norton") was recorded, evidently to distinguish it from other Nortons further north in Oxfordshire such as Chipping Norton. By the 1260s the form Norton Brun was in use, referring to the Brun or Brown family who were the parish's manorial lords. Further variants included Brunesnorton in 1297, Brimes Norton in 1303 and Brynes Norton in 1376, but the Norton Brun form outlived them and was still in use early in the 17th century. The form Brysenorton had appeared by 1523, and by the middle of the 17th century it had become the usual form of the name. However, Norton Brun had evolved into Norton Broyne and remained in use in church records until early in the 19th century.
Major infrastructure redevelopment began in 2010 ahead of the closure of RAF Lyneham in 2012, at which point Brize Norton became the sole air point of embarkation for British troops.
By the end of June 2011 all flying units from RAF Lyneham had moved to RAF Brize Norton.
The crew keeping the skies safe above RAF's largest and busiest base
RAF Brize Norton is the largest and busiest RAF station, with approximately 5,800 service personnel, 300 civilian staff and 1,200 contractors.
With its mixed fleet of aircraft, RAF Brize Norton provides rapid global mobility in support of the UK's overseas operations and exercises.
And at the centre of all that goes on is the Control Tower, which keeps the skies clear.

The Antonov 225 (UR-82060) landed at around 20:30 local time on the 29th August 2018 from Kiev's Hostomel Airport (GML/UKKM). After a brief night stop it then departed to Athens (ATH/LGAV) on the 30th August 2018 at around 16:00 local time.
"The AN-225 is the largest aircraft in the world and is the only aircraft that features six turbofan engines. It has the capability to transport up to 250 tonnes of cargo, including single pieces weighing up to 200 tonnes over short and medium haul routes".
100% my highlight of 2018, something any plane spotter dreams of seeing. I am so thrilled to have finally seen the Antonov An-225 and I am pleased to be able to share this video with you! Please, if you enjoyed the video hit like and share 👍
