He entered the RAF College Cranwell in 1963 and five years later began his operational career on 8 Squadron, flying Hunters in Bahrain. A long association with the Phantom followed, including tours on 6 and 56 Squadrons, a USAF exchange, and command of both 92 Squadron in Germany and, briefly, 23 Squadron in the Falklands. In the mid-80s, as Station Commander RAF Wattisham, he was appointed ADC to HM The Queen. It was his last flying post until he returned to Germany in the early-90s, first as the Deputy Commander and thereafter as Air Officer Commanding No. 2 Group. His final appointment was as Chief of Staff and Deputy Commander-in-Chief, RAF Strike Command. He retired from the RAF in 1998.view less
