Good Afternoon Everyone,
I am the current Chair of The RAF Survival Equipment (S) Assoc commonly known as the 'Squippers Association' -[RAFSE(S)A] as an Association we are a relatively new however we represent the RAF Trade both serving & veterans. The Associations Patron is Air Marshall P Sturley CB MBE (Rtrd).
Part of my role/job as Chair is to place on Record the Trades History (which there is very little) however as a Trade we have been providing ,maintaining & fitting all forms of Survival Equipment to Aircrew (RAF) passengers and survivors since 1926.
Therefore in an attempt to record our history we would like to hear from anyone who has a story to tell about us ( Good or Bad- Banter welcome) and to establish links with anyone who is either a member of the Goldfish , Caterpillar & Martin Baker Clubs or if you are just aircrew who have worked with us including those of you who were or are CSRO's/NBCO's.
The Association has a Newsletter and if you would like to contribute please contact me.
Lastly Our First Reunion Dinner will be held next year which it is our intention to invite 12 aircrew who have used our equipment to the dinner.
So Gentleman & Ladies let the banter commence.
Regards
