First off for this month - can everyone please note that Andy Marden has a new email address and that his old one has ceased to exist!
The renewals are coming in at a steady pace and ths is a great help - the more we receive early then the easier it makes the administration task (there are so many extra tasks that have to be carried out at the end of the year that early arrivals of renewal forms is a great help).
Still no reports from the USA but Moray is expecting a rush for the November issue as everyone returns home from the USA and sorts out their reports - so remember to send them in please!
However, a large number of reports from Europe has all added to a bumper Foreign Section with several reports carried over to the November edition of MAR. Anyone travelling outside Europe during the winter months please send in reports from wherever you end up - no matter how small the report is. Sometimes, reports do not appear in the magazine, this can be due to a number of reasons - one of the most common being we have just printed a report rcently (but the information wil update our master files)!

524 BRITISH REVIEW History was made on 20th September 2013 when the final operational flight by a VC-10 took place; this ends 47 years of RAF serv- ice for the type. Sadly they will not grace our skies anymore with the thunderous roars of the four Rolls Royce Conway engines other than on high speed runs at Bruntingthorpe (and possibly Dunsfold). 101 Sqn, the last Squadron to operate the VC-10 will be converting to the Voyager fleet so will remain in an Air to Air tanking role which they have performed since 01st May 1984. Another milestone was reached during September. After 47 years of maintaining the RAF’s C-130K fleet, XV177 is the last of these ageing Hercules that Marshall Aerospace, Cambridge will service for the RAF. These are not the last K model Hercules that will go though at Marshall Aerospace as they will continue to support the three Austrian AF examples in the coming years. It is believed the RAF’s remaining Ks will be flown to St Athan where they will be kept flyable by a team from Marshalls and potential buyers will be sought, the out of service date for RAF K model is28.10.2013. Finally, BAE Systems unveiled an offer at the Defence Services Equipment International Exhi- bition in London to equip the RAF with BAE 146 Air to Air tankers, this has been turned down by the Ministry of Defence stating that the Voyager fleet of nine aircraft will be ample for the RAF requirements......
