The Bremont S500 in the cockpit of the RAF 100 GB-NZ Expedition aircraft. They're following a 17000-mile route from Britain to New Zealand, flying at 100mph in a 100hp Eurofox, and will celebrate 100 years of the RAF by visiting 27 locations, all bar 2 of which have significant RAF history.
A rapid turnaround at Aki for the RAF 100 GB-NZ Expedition team last Saturday. Have to admire a feat that requires so much planning, permissions and with so many potential variables that can impact the route. Great stuff.
Excited to have RAF pilots stop by at the Karachi library as they make their way to New Zealand as part of the 100 years of RAF. Along the way they are meeting young people to higlight the importance of STEM education. #raf100 #gbnz RAF 100 GB-NZ Expedition
The RAF engages directly with schools and organisations to inspire future generations in STEM fields. The pilots will continue their journey to New Zealand as part of a 27-country expedition to mark 100 years of the RAF. #raf100 #gbnz RAF 100 GB-NZ Expedition
A bit quiet due to lack of WiFi. Two days ago we were in Karachi - a really vibrant and exciting city. Met some great people and the flying wasn’t bad either!! Bremont Military Thales UK Inzpire bymbda ACM Harv Smyth

Nice snap of the Bremont S500 from the propeller of the RAF 100 GB-NZ Expedition Team’s Eurofox. RAF 100 GB-NZ Expedition are following a 17000-mile route from Britain to New Zealand, flying at 100mph in a 100hp Eurofox, to help celebrate 100 years of the Royal Air Force.
On Saturday we flew across Myanmar: a truly beautiful country, but also home to one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world today. Save the Children UK is one of the charities supported by our fundraiser (uk.virginmoneygiving.com/Team/RAF100GBNZ), so any donations will help their work there.
This photo of a poppy field was taken back in the UK in June, with less than 10 hours on the airframe, but comes to mind today as #Remembrance Day marks 100 years since the end of the First World War. RAF Benevolent Fund RAF Association #WeWillRememberThem #ArmisticeDay100 #LestWeForget
