1 April 2018 will see the 100th anniversary of the formation of one of the UK's primary and best-respected armed forces: the Royal Air Force. From the fighters and bombers of the Second World War, through to the early jet age aircraft and into modern stealth, pilotless and incredibly high-tech vehicles, the last century's development has been astronomical, and the human story no less impressive. Here Peter Jacobs gathers the most poignant of objects of the RAF's proud history and displays them together here, in full splendid colour. Each object is illustrated and accompanied by the story of its role within the RAF and its significance today.
