A date for your diaries: The BBMF Members’ Day at RAF Coningsby is to be held this year on Saturday 1st October 2022. The latest in a long line of annual exclusive events, Members’ Day is a way for the BBMF to say thank you to its supporters who are members of the Lincolnshire’s Lancaster Association and the RAF Memorial Flight Official Club.

6th June marks the anniversary of D-Day, the Allied invasion of Normandy on that date in 1944. 20th June marks a far less well-known anniversary of one of the RAF D-Day heroes who was killed in action two weeks after the landings.
