We are making a concerted effort to grow and strengthen the AFA in Gauteng and your continued support will help us achieve this. If you would like to be involved or you have any suggestions, we would be delighted to hear from you. Monthly "Prayer Meetings" will be held at Dickie Fritz Shellhole, Edenvale on the first Saturday of every month. Come and join us as we socialize, braai and share good times with great friends.

The Rhodesian Air Force was officially established on 8th April 1970 and we are planning to host a function to celebrate this wonderful occasion. We will keep you informed of the event details closer to the time.
