JF freely and unostentatiously does more than anybody else I know for British aeronautical education - he sits on Brunel's advisory panel (and presumably other universities), the steering and ops&sim committees of the association of aerospace universities, organises an annual event promoting aerospace careers amongst school children, judges an annual inter-university flight simulation competition - as well as allowing aeronautical beginners like me to engage with him in some thoroughly enjoyable technical arguments at some of the meetings where we both find ourselves (which I invariably lose). And that's just what I happen to know about.

He gives damned interesting lectures too, although sadly I missed this one.
