23 Scouts and Leaders set of from Hockwell Ring Community centre in 2 Minibuses for RAF Museum Hendon on Saturday 23rd March 2019.

Their plan was to carry out work on stages of the Air Activities Badge and Air Researchers badge and for most that aim was completed.

But whilst there a lot of fun and pleasure was had by all, including Leaders. RAF Hendon has icreased the hanger spaces available to view and the attractions to watch, including a 4D Show, Battle of Britain viewing, Dam Busters show, Typhoo Simulator and many more.

A great day was had by all and photos from the day are available in the RAF Hendon album.
