The Supermarine Spitfire and Hawker Hurricane fighter aircraft, which these tiny models faithfully represent , both participated in the Battle of Britain in 1940. These two tiny hand painted pewter aircraft models are mounted on a varnished wooden plinth, on which the Travel Bug tag has been attached.
For the purposes of The Great Air Race, this trackable has been allocated to Maria.
This Travel Bug Dog Tag, is taking part in 'The Great Air Race', a family competition which started in North Yorkshire, UK on Xmas Day 2012.
The aircraft are 'racing' against 10 other similar trackable aircraft models to see which achieves the most AirMiles (£50 prize) and/or the most Geocaches visited (£25 prize) within the coming year.
And yes, it is a race.
The Finishing Line will be in a geocache in Maryland, USA, the actual location of which will be notified to finders of this Travel Bug when it arrives in the Washington DC area.
So please help it to travel fast and far, and visit as many different geocaches as possible. Please keep it moving!
Please do not steal, damage or destroy this lovely little artefact, but honour and respect the sense of fun in which it sets off on it's mission, and the sense of delight which I hope will come to those who seek to assist it in The Great Air Race as it flies on to it's final destination!
