I live near Fuengirola. Any 1950´s onwards pilots around here ?? Any of you know of any ??

There is an active branch of The Aircrew Association near Calpe so they may have suitable contacts in your area.

Further to my last you may get some info from the Hon Sec at [email protected]

Try [email protected] I must have missed out a "c". He is the Hon Sec of the Aircrew Association Charitable Fund but must know addresses where you can make contact.

There is an active RAFA branch in North Costa Blanca (Javea/Denia area) and a number of ACA are members. I have e-mail'd details of one of the ACA members to you - see your PM.... He should be in a position to advise you of other ACA contacts in your area.

There is an active RAFA branch in Estepona. I visited last year and went to the Remembrance Day parade in Gibraltar. They laid on a coach, good parade and beer and curry in the Sgts mess afterwards - a fine day out!

Thanks to all who replied. No real joy, I´m afraid.
Even at my age !! I´m told that in "organised" Branches of the usual organisations - "unless you flew Lancs in the war , you don´t count". That´s why I mentioned 1950´s onwards. No disrespect intended - but it´s nice to be " comfortable & amongst those who know a little about a Jet engine, isn´t it.

Try Flight Training Europe in Jerez. Their CGI is ex Javelins and Lightnings and joined in 1949. They don't call ground school at FTE Jurrasic Park for nothing!!
