I grew up in South Africa where National Service was compulsory. I was called up for 2 years with the Army signals.

What is one RAFAC activity you haven't tried yet, but want to?

Gliding!

Why the RAFAC?

Here I found a shared passion for aviation and engineering with likeminded people of all ages.

Do you have a brief message for the cadets?

Constantly remind yourself of the RAFAC Aim and live by our Motto!

Thank you Sir
