As if that isn’t enough, you’ll get to see what daily life entails on an operational RAF Squadron.A project of this size has never been attempted with a frontline asset before, but thanks to the Royal Air Force, Joint Helicopter Command and RAF Odiham, Tom has been able to capture an insight into the RAF’s centenary year in all its glory. Some of the proceeds from this book will be donated to the RAF 100 appeal.
