Join us at 2pm on Sunday 11 May for the ‘Flying Through the Ranks - Phew - That Was Close!' talk by Air Marshal GA ‘Black’ Robertson CBE.

 

His talk includes enthralling stories from the Cold War, the Falklands and Kosovo, and the experiences of both aircrew and groundcrew. 

 

‘Black’ Robertson CBE shares how his experiences in the air, who he worked with, the places he served and the jobs he did taught him lessons for life. These tales of derring-do offer a unique perspective, not just on the RAF’s development, but on the type of characters who formed its backbone.
