The fabulous RAFMAA Scampton Warbirds is going to take place again this year, on the weekend of 21-22 April.

As with all previous events, this is an invitation only event, so if we don't personally know you, or can’t establish who you are, then you will not be invited. I will vet everyone against previous lists and I will contact anyone I don't recognize. Please remember, RAFMAA Warbirds is held at RAF Scampton, a real live RAF station, complete with all of the expected restrictions and security you should expect when operating within a military establishment.

If you would like to attend this event, please complete the application form for all members of your team who would like to visit.

There is an opportunity for you to camp in a tent or caravan on the airfield, however the only facilities that are provided are Portaloos; there will be no showers, washing facilities, etc. There is also no shop or pub within the confines of the airfield, so please bring sufficient supplies to last the weekend, although the nearest village with all the normal facilities is about four miles away.

There will be a food vendor on site for both days.

Please do not arrive at RAF Scampton before 6pm Friday evening.

The entry fee will provisionally be £5 per Day.

It would be great if those of you who may be able to assist in providing raffle prizes would let me know, as always this event is primarily focused on raising money for charity.

During the event imagery (photographs, audio/videos, films) may be taken in order to publicise/advertise the activities of the Royal Air Force Model Aircraft Association though commercial, editorial, public relations, recruitment, on-line media and/or any other use that is not defamatory, libellous or otherwise unlawful . Individuals should be aware that they would have no claim of ownership of the imagery/audio and that they will not receive remuneration for the its usage now, nor in the future and that the imagery/audio may be cropped, modified or altered, without stating an objection. Individuals that do not consent to the above are to make that fact known to Sgt Holmes who will ensure that their image is not captured or used.

Please get back to me soonest so I can start sending the invites out.

Please don't hesitate to email me if you need any further info.
