ANNUAL CONFERENCE  -  AYR  -  2005
Representing us at this year’s annual conference was Jim Harper  who accepted the Efficiency Trophy which we won and which he is holding in our second picture
On the left, above, is Mike Hughes - our favourite author and Associate Member of Branch 1355.
Central to the picture is Geoff Payne is our Wings Officer / Organiser /  Encourager Extraordinaire !!!!
To the right is our Welfare Officer / Secretary of whom our President has claimed his right to speak.
On this occasion I can confidently claim to speak not just for all the individual members of Branch 1355 but for all those who have worked with; or benefited from the work and dedication of James Clark.
Jim served in the Royal Air Force for eight years before returning to civil life and becoming involved with the Air Training Corps and with the Royal Air Forces Association. His forty plus years of service were noted by the RAFA and he was asked to attend the Annual Conference to accept the mounted Presidential Certificate recording his many years of service to others.
Though a relatively new Branch we appreciate we have access to his years of experience and his ever ready willingness to help newcomers settling in to the RAFA.
