Originally thirty-six hardstands of the "frying pan" type were constructed as when work started, the base was intended for RAF use. When re-scheduled for the USAAF, the number was increased to fifty, all of them being on the south and eastern side of the airfield as a railway line and the A11 road restricted dispersed locations. Total area of concrete laid in its construction was 530,000 square yards with storage provided for 144,000 gallons of fuel.
