This Year . Transfer of Historic Assets : During the financial year, certain assets of a historic nature and significance to the Royal Air Force were transferred from the charity to the RAF Heritage Branch. It was considered that, due to their heritage importance, these items would be more appropriately safeguarded, preserved and managed under the care of the RAF Heritage Branch. The assets transferred had an approximate carrying value of £177,000 at the date of transfer and have accordingly been removed from the charity's balance sheet.
