The 8th May u3a talk by Brian Reader was all about his experiences in the Hawker Siddley T1 Dominie RAF trainer which was phased out after 45 years service in 2011. Thanks to Paul Filmer for the picture.

The talk on Friday 22nd May by Steve Chaskin looks at The First Battle of Britain 1915-1918 which encompasses the Royal Flying Corps at its base at Larkhill, Salisbury plain and the daring exploits of the aviators of the time to keep the aircraft in the air and then cross the channel. Anyone is welcome so contact u3a via the web site www.maccu3a.uk and specifically if you can offer an insight into flying or ground crew over the years. Small charge.
