BB - check your private messages.

Edited to say: former staff members are the target audience this time around. Because of the very large number of students over the years there might be a risk of being over subscribed otherwise.

Tam Hazan - Still around


Delighted to report that I am alive and well, and have recently emigrated to New Zealand.
Please accept my apologies for not being at the re-union.
The time that I spent on 234 Sqn at Brawdy was the best, and the highlight of my career - lot of great flying, wonderful people, superb location and a really worthwhile job. Loved the variety of work, and - I can say it now - even the students were a cheerful and friendly bunch.
My best regards to you all.
Tam
41 Degrees South.

Cool Tam Hazan - Still around

But living at 41 degrees South.
Emigrated to New Zealand a couple of years ago, after finishing flying as civilian QHNI on Sixty Sqn, RAF Shawbury.
My very best wishes to all of 234 Sqn. Apologies for absence.
Tam the Nav
