Is that why your butchering large portions of them then?

Happy Birthday R.A.F. My granddaddy was there in 1918.

April Fools! There isn't actually an RAF, it was cut last month.

In all seriousness, I wonder what they'll do for the 100th, would be nice to have a fly-past with aircraft from the Camel to the F35 (if we even have the damn thing by then). Wonder if XH558 will be flying again by then?

Sad to think how it's gone...but then again, we've always been good at making the most of what little we've got, I guess.
