A note on the 2012 AGM in the RAF Club […]OK, I know we’re going to get some flak for this decision, so soon after the poll on the preferred venue was so firmly won by Wittering, but if we’re going to have a memorable Centenary then it really has to be held at RAF Valley. The reasons include: IV(R) Squadron is based at Valley […] Out of 83 responses (thanks everyone!), there were 12 votes (14%) for Farnborough, 16 votes (19%) for Valley and 55 votes (66%) for Wittering.
