In this issue our Annual General Meeting is reported. Our new Chairman was elected, Chris Roberts, well known to many of us as a colleague, he was Chief Test Pilot Dunsfold, and also through the talks he has given to the Association. The retiring Chairman, Ambrose Barber, served us admirably for 14 years, having taken on the job for three! He will be missed.
Yesterday I was at Duxford for the Flying Legends air show. The highlight for me was seeing five, yes five, Hurricanes flying together!We also launch an appeal for donations to support the continuing restoration of P.1127, XP984, at the Brooklands Museum. The Association’s gift of £500 has already helped this project but further funds are needed.
