Today our Visitor Centre volunteers enjoyed a wonderful outing to the excellent on -base, RAF Cranwell Heritage, Ethos & Centre.
We discovered amazing information and imagery, learning how this historic and iconic airfield has grown and changed from its very beginnings as an airbase, through two world wars and on to modern day practices.
A big thank you to our friendly and knowledgeable guide Ray Holloway who even taught us ‘aviation geeks’ things we didn’t know! 
A fabulous morning had by all!.

A new sculpture of a Spitfire was erected on Saturday 7th May. Created by Andy Knighton. Spitfires along with Martinets and Hurricanes under the command of Les Munro (Dams fame) flew from Metheringham as 1690 Bomber Defence Training Flight. Their job was to teach Lancaster Pilots how to best evade fighters.
