Squadron Ties – the original Zig Zag style

Had a phone call recently from Association Member Chris Kelly asking about the availability of the original black with a red ziz zag Squadron ties. The bottom line is that the Association does not hold stock of any ties or other memorabilia items. Items that are available can be purchased via the Squadron at Brize, follow this link http://the24sec.wordpress.com/2010/11/10/xxiv-squadron-stock-list/.

Chris has made some enquiries but most retailers understandably have a minimum order of around £400, which might buy say around 10 ties. The answer is to drum up a bit of trade and work up to a decent order quantity. So with that in mind and to be a bit pro active, I thought a Blog Post might be a good format to start an order list. The idea is that if you DEFINITELY want a Squadron tie in the Zig Zag style, send me your name and I will put you on the list. I will keep the list running for a few months, say till May 2012 so we can put in an order in time for delivery for the 2012 Reunion. This should bring down the costs to a sensible unit price. If the demand is not sufficient, no order will be placed. A request for payment will be made once the list closes and total costs can be divided by total quantity prior to the order going in.

Luckily John Martin  has sent in a photo of the tie design for reference,
