Great news as progress has been made on a number of fronts. Although a number of councils have shown interest in this 100th Anniversary Commemorative Flight, Great Yarmouth Borough Council is the first to sign up to sponsor a local display. The 1913 Control Point was the Naval Air Station which no longer exists but enthusiasm to see the Catalina perform an air display is growing. A leading petroleum company has committed to supply lubricants for the whole flight. Accommodation for the over night stops has been finalised with special thanks to the Station Commanders at RAF Leeming and RAF St Mawgan and the RAFBF for the kind introductions. Finally, the IWM Duxford is assisting with PR activities for the flight while IWM London will be doing an article on the flight in Despatches. Well done to all involved and many thanks for supporting Project Hawker 2013.
Great news! Lets hope more sponsors will follow.
