Two talks will take place during the day, the first from Peter Hart, an Oral Historian of the Imperial War Museum since 1981, called The RFC and the Battle of the Somme and the second by Graham Pitchfork, Air Commodore (Retd) called The Evolution of The Royal Airforce.
During the day, delegates will be served a buffet lunch in the Airmen's Mess, given a guided tour of the Aerodrome, its museums and hangars as well as a Tiptree Afternoon Tea courtesy of Wilkins & Sons Ltd. The cost per ticket is a modest £40, and tickets will be limited on a first come first served basis.

On Sunday 1st April, the Aerodrome will host a celebratory day for the public. A parade will take place in support of an honorary 'handing over ceremony' by lowering the RFC ensign and raising the RAF ensign by two high ranking serving officers of the relevant arms. Living History groups, Dawn Patrol and the RAF Honnington Band will also be on site.
