Welcome to our Blog

Welcome to the new, updated version of the Royal Aero Club Collection web-site. The main improvements are the introduction of this Blog, and the addition – on a searchable basis – of the Sub-Committee Minute Books of the Royal Aero Club. We have also improved the catalogue for our collection of Fine Art; the Trophies’ catalogue will be upgraded in due course. This new Blog will enable us to keep you advised about new developments with the Collection. Please check back on a regular basis. The Sub-Committee Minute Books that have been added include those for the Schneider Trophy (1929) and the MacRobertson International Air Race (1934). Check under Archives>Papers to search for yourself. The Schneider Trophy also features among our paintings, including this one of the 1929 team, by artist Coombe Richards.
