(May 7, 2009 - js) On 7th May 1909, the Admiralty began a process that was to lead to the formation of the Fleet Air Arm. As this year is the Centenary Year of Naval Aviation, there are a number of events and publications throughout the year to celebrate and commemorate this event. The Royal Naval Amateur Radio Society is to operate a special event station during May 2009. The station will have the callsign GB100FAA and will be operated by members of the Society, initially from HMS Collingwood at Fareham (1st to 15th May) and latterly at the Royal Naval Air Station at Yeovilton in Somerset (19th to 21st May). |
