RAF-Trained Pilot Prepares For Shuttle Mission To Space Station
”I am delighted to be able to take the RAF flag into space – I learned to fly with the RAF while studying engineering at Cambridge and feel the Service encouraged my love of flying and I have been flying ever since. Today I am a member of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association and have managed to log more than 1,900 hours in 20 types of aeroplane and helicopter, including 800 as a flight instructor”
...Nick Patrick even took a RAF ensign with him to the ISS when he went there in the Space Shuttle in 2006.
