To those of you interested in photographing old planes, or if you just hate to see yet another piece of this once Countries history assigned to the scrap heap, please visit the link below and save the "Battle of Britain Memorial Flight." There is a risk it could be scrapped in the defence cuts.

Regards,
Paul

Thanks for posting, but this sounds like a variation of the "Red Arrows to be scrapped" rumour that is trotted out every year. Is there any evidence to suggest this is true? The petition just says, "It has been suggested".

Read the other thread, its apparently the Daily Wail doing its usual, the RAF have a statement on their web that nothing will happen to it.

I agree it could be rumour and conjecture, but why take the chance? Too late once it happens.

I was expecting to see lots of silhouettes of aeroplanes with the question: 'Why are the planes so dark?'
