Another terrible loss. Mary Ellis, pioneering female aviator, Air Transport Auxiliary veteran, an inspiration to generations. I'll always remember her proudly reminding us at RAF100 events that she was older than the RAF itself! RIP Mary.

After the sad new that Sqn Ldr Geoffrey Wellum DFC died on Wednesday, we are dedicating this weekend’s flypasts to his memory. The photo shows him with our Mk IIa Spitfire marked in his Battle of Britain 92 Sqn colours. Lest We Forget.

It is with great sadness that we hear one of ‘The Few’, Sqn Ldr Geoffrey Wellum DFC, passed away on Wednesday evening. Geoffrey was the youngest Battle of Britain Spitfire pilot and an inspiration to the RAF today. RIP Per Ardua Ad Astra

Devastated to hear that Battle Of Britain Spitfire pilot Geoffrey Wellum has died. He was a totally lovely gent & an unassuming hero with whom I was privileged to share many glasses of wine. Churchill's "Few" are even fewer. Your duty is done; rest easy Sir. Pic @leewalker65

FlyPast is at the RAF Museum Hendon this afternoon - lots of exciting things going on at the site. The Bf 110 is resting in the Historic Hangars before being moved to its new display location at Hendon.

We remember our most experienced astronaut, John Young. “Today, NASA and the world have lost a pioneer." Full statement from our Acting Administrator Robert Lightfoot on the passing of Young: go.nasa.gov/2m1vk2r

We're saddened by the loss of astronaut John Young, who was 87. Young flew twice to the Moon, walked on its surface & flew the first Space Shuttle mission. He went to space six times in the Gemini, Apollo & Space Shuttle programs.
