And until the late 80s the red suits were provided by a businessman who supported the Team, until in RAFSC Command Accounts we lobbied for them to be publically funded - eventually they were paid for from non-public funds until the argument was advanced that it was flight safety issue and the public finally coughed up. I am proud to have played a part in getting the "right" decision.
