Welcome to Cross & Cockade International
The Cross & Cockade International 2012 Seminar will be held at York over the weekend of 22nd to 24th June 2012. See Upcoming Events for full details. We've got an international list of speakers, talking on a wide variety of subjects. There will also be plenty of time to sit and natter - meeting many of the "names" that most of us only know via article by-lines or (at best) via email.
If you're hoping to come, please let us know through the Upcoming Events page, so we can beter plan the event! Our much anticipated monograph on the Sopwith Dolphin will be shipping from 16th March. On sale online ONLY from this web site, it's also available in the shops of our partner in this production, the RAF Museum, at Hendon and Cosford. Into Facebook? Thanks to member Adrian Roberts, you can keep up to date with society news at the Cross & Cockade page! Volume 43 starts shipping this week. The first journal of the year has as its lead article my favourite aircraft (Sopwith Camel) in my favourite sideshow (Italy). Czech historian Jiri Rajlich tells the full story behind the fascinating events of 31st August 1918. The Gazetteer gets as far as Harlaxton (that's near Grantham ...) and Mick Davis and Trevor Henshaw start an occasional series, detailing the histories of aircraft with small production runs - beginning with the Bristol Scout.
