Valued by Members as a distinguished landmark where traditions and camaraderie reign\, the Club holds timeless elegance and atmosphere. The Royal Flying Corps Club\, the forerunner of the Royal Air Force Club\, opened at 13 Bruton Street in 1917. It became the Royal Air Force Club in 1918 shortly after the first Lord Cowdray donated funds to obtain a permanent building which would house the Club. The buildings were acquired by the middle of 1919. Between 1919 and 1921 extensive reconstruction took place supervised by architect Maurice Webb and largely financed by Lord Cowdray. On 2 January 1922 the Club was fully opened to Members although it was not officially opened by the Duke of York until 24 February 1922. On 14 March 1922 the Club was visited by King George V and Queen Mary. This association with the Royal Family continues to this day.
