While not new I never really introduced myself when I joined, now looking to get more involved with the happenings on FC.

I'm Keenan, 19 from the Leuchars area. Along with another local I help manage the RAF Leuchars Spotters facebook group and can be found regularly at Leuchars whenever there's action. I'm more into my photography and building a deeper understanding of in-country military operations.
Also, for now, a CWO Flight Staff Cadet at 661 Volunteer Gliding Squadron where I spend the majority of my weekends getting cadets up gliding (banished to the Winch on medical circumstances - hooray :roll:).

Looking forward to continuing to get to know the various names and characters on here :thumbs:

Hi scorpont

A warm welcome to FC... I like the sound of how you spend your weekends... gliding... I did it a couple of times at Wrekin Gliding Club RAF Cosford back in the 90s once up on a tow line and once up on the winch.

Plenty of interesting people here on FC with a vast amount of knowledge in all things aviation from Serials to Photography.

Look forward to seeing a few of your photos.

Enjoy the forum :thumb: .

Hi been lurking for sometime, I have a passion for aviation, but I am no means an expert.. I am here to learn. I currently live within the Machloop.
