It is possible for anyone, wherever you are in the world, to become members of The Friends of The Fighter Collection, and thus to take part in the support and upkeep of Europes' premier collection of World War Two fighter aircraft.

Members will qualify for reduced admission charges to the Imperial War Museum at Duxford for non-airshow days and will have a number of special offers and members-only competitions made available to them throughout their years membership.

Currently, Friends of TFC can gain entrance to IWM Duxford, on non-airshow days, at a reduced rate, and children free up to 16 years.

Members of the Friends organisation will receive three news letters, called the Fighter Log, each year. Each issue contains articles written either by the Pilots who operate TFC aircraft at airshows and for film work, or by the engineers and volunteers who keep the large fleet of aircraft airworthy.

Fighter Log also contains at least one page of news on the aircraft in the Collection, covering the progress on the ten or so rebuilds currently under way on Fighter Collection aircraft around the world, as well as the latest on the flyers.

Each issue also offers a different competitions with past prizes having included the chance to win a flight in the back seat of TFC's Harvard, or away days with the ground crew at Airshows.
