I highly recommend entering this month .. the BRONCO really is the effort to give it all !


And in the starting gate is No.25 Squadron ... the Spadman has got out the gate really quick

I'll definitely enter this comp, I had a shot all lined up for last months one and then the interweb packed a sad. I'll still vote though.

Quick question here...can we include RNZAF sqns in the RAF in WW2 (ie 485 sqn)?

[Ian Warren]

One for the rules ... 485 or even 75 squadron in WWII , The first Royal New Zealand Air Force unit was grouped at Feltwell in January 1940 No.3 group , April that year was to become No.75 squadron NZ , off all things was the first Commonwealth unit in Bomber Command .

The groups were posted not on NZ shores but created , for the 75th Celebration maybe a lapse with being over NZ territory simply for the World War aircrew .

To save any further confusion please note rule 6 has been amended to now read
