In conjunction with RFYC (at the RFYC clubhouse on Middle Pier):
Wednesday 25th March, 19:00 – 21:30. So not really Top Gun at all! – Ian Abson
Ian is a new RFYC member and will share an insight into military flying as a navigator from helicopters and slow to fast jets. This is a collection of amusing stories, photos and the odd video from Ian’s 37.5 year career flying in the Royal Navy then the RAF, up to his retirement last summer. It should be entertaining for all, especially those who may not know much about military flying and perhaps have a glorified image of it (he blames the pilots for that!)!

Pole Star – Anstruther running aground, followed by excellent seamanship getting home.
NOTE: It should be recorded that the grounding resulted from having selflessly spent 40+ precious ebbing-tide minutes trying to make another FCYC boat seaworthy, till unfortunately it was too late, and a further three hours were then lost aground.!!
