Thoughts?
Question for the #Avgeek Historian Brainstrust: Is there an online archive of @nzairforce & @royalairforce media releases, images, news articles/newspapers, magazines, etc for the period of 1990-2006?

RNZAF website has media releases back to 2009. RNZAF News is available back until 2013 - I have scanned copies back to 1999.

Be great if our mob did the same. there was a large gap in RNZAF News issues in the 60's and 70's when reveille was the Armed Services paper.

The NZDF library in Wellington used to have the best collection of RNZAF News/Reveille magazines. However, when the "new" Defence building became uninhabitable in the 2018 earthquake, the collection went into storage and as far as I know hasn't been returned for access for researchers. The Air Force Museum has a good collection of these magazines. As far as media releases go, the only source of filed media releases for that period would be on the official files held by Air Staff and not available for public scrutiny.

Do any of the 2001-ish RNZAF News have any articles on the DJ2 / restructuring process in them? If so, I would be very interested in getting a scan/photo of relevent articles. Thanks
