An important message from AHUK
Warning.
As you know, The British Aviation Preservation Council changed it's name to Aviation Heritage UK in October 2017.
I have now found out that our old website, www.bapc.org.uk, has been taken over by fraudsters - although I’m not sure what they hope to achieve. The business address they have given doesn’t exist and the telephone number is fake.
They have even listed some Stopping the Rot papers from our old website to lend credibility to this fraud. Everything else on the site is fake.
Our correct (and genuine) website is www.aviationheritageuk.org
They are inviting new members to sign up but I haven’t tried doing it because you just don’t know what these sort of fraudsters are able to send out attached to their emails.
Please share and tell everyone you can think of - before it costs them hard earned money!
Many thanks for your help

Thanks to the Branche Francaise d'Air-Britain for sharing this marvellous video from Corsair International saying their farewell to the Boeing 747. This just shows how dear this aeroplane is to operators the world over.
