He commented on loving the new seats and racing stripes and how he was able to take his good mate up who flies DC3’s (super jealous) and that they had a great time.

On Saturday 27th July, RQAC partnered with Fun Flight to run a charity event for children in the community facing adversity. There was a free sausage sizzle, face painting and a bouncy castle!
