The branch's 2008 Salute to 90 years of the RAF was a great success. Well over 3,500 people poured in through the gates of the Norfolk and Suffolk Aviation Museum at Flixton to enjoy the festivities with RAFA raising more than £1,300 and the museum's NAAFI was kept busy all day. Among the special guests, who were greeted by branch president Wing Commander Gerry Honey, was a Battle of Britain pilot - Wing Commander Tom Neil DFC. Here are some pictiures from the day.
