They will be responsible for the stewardship of the organisation as it charts new courses into the 21st century.

A release from the association stated, “Our Branch clearly demonstrates a combination of youth and experience in its choice of leadership, which will augur well for its future development, prosperity and longevity.

“We wish to invite all serving and retired members of the Royal Air Force and the Trinidad and Tobago Air Guard, who are not yet members to join our Air Force family for the good and welfare of those who have served and who are still in service.”
