Would love to hear stoires relating to my old man (sadly now navigating the great bucc in the sky off the deck of Ark).

Had brilliant feedback from FAAOA members back in 2007 when published his obit but am still piecing together his interesting if short career in the FAA.

Ay, indeed he was, as well as 800 and 801 i believe. I know he was up at Lossie as well as being embarked on Ark & Eagle. Any info, stories etc would be greatly appreciated.

Son of Brommers,

PM me! He never did join the Buccaneer Aircrew Association but, with 450+ members on the database that I hold, I can put you in touch with many FAA Bucc guys of his era who will be able to fill you to capacity.

I never met him but I know he was a legend in the FAA and there was many a story bouncing around the Honington bar when I started my Bucc career (with the RAF) in 1970!
