On 12th April the International Bomber Command Centre (IBCC) on Canwick Hill, Lincoln, was officially opened with a special ceremony. Club members will have seen the article in the latest Yearbook magazine giving details of the superb memorial and the state-of-the-art interactive displays in the Chadwick Centre, telling the story of RAF Bomber Command during World War Two. The centre has been open to the public in a so-called ‘soft opening’ since the end of January, but this was the official opening ceremony.

The RAF Memorial Flight Official Club Yearbook for 2018 will be sent out exclusively to Club members, free of charge, in the next couple of weeks. The BBMF Yearbook is NOT on sale to the general public. If you are not a member, join the Club today to receive your free copy and all of the twice-yearly BBMF magazines, as well as the monthly e-newsletters with exclusive content for Club members.
