Absolutely- and non standard hair styles and lack of proper flying boots. Standards are really slipping....

Nice helmet designs- like the tri-color one the boy submitted.

A piece of good news that should have had wider publicity IMHO
A pat on the back for those that made it possible

I agree with goudie. Anything that gets the next generation in contact with the RAF has to be to our advantage. Well done all, and yes, it should have been better publicised.

Agreed. The winning design is a bit 'fussy' to my eyes, and severely non-butch

Looks like the flying suits are the product of Terry Rumble’s company - brilliant for kids to get them the ‘aviation bug’ at an early age
