Continuing the ‘Members Remember’ series, in which we offer Club members the opportunity to tell the stories of any relatives who served with the RAF during the Second World War, here we have the story of Lancaster wireless operator, Flying Officer Ken Crawley, father of Club member Bob Crawley, and also Ken’s wife, Bob’s mother, ex-WAAF Lilian “Lilly” Crawley.

The RAF Memorial Flight Official Club is pleased to announce a photographic competition for Club members to submit their photos of the BBMF for possible inclusion in a new Club calendar for 2024. The 13 photos – one for the cover and 12 for the months of the year – will be selected by a panel of judges including the Club’s publication editor, former OC BBMF Clive Rowley and the current OC BBMF, Squadron Leader Mark ‘Suggs’ Sugden.

All members of the RAF Memorial Flight Official Club are automatically entered into our monthly prize ballots to win some special prizes. These were the ballot prizes for the months of January to March 2023 and the lucky Club members who won them.
