This is sad news indeed. The RAF is a big family, and a very close one. When my daughter walked in through THAT DOOR at RAFC Cranwell after her graduation parade, I had an overwhelming feeling that she had left my family... and joined another one, and I didn't mind a bit, because I know what a good family it is. They will feel this loss- as they do them all- very deeply. And I know none who would be elsewhere or be doing anything different. RIP.
