A little about me

I am a British, Trans-Woman, 20-year old that is currently in my 2nd year of University, studying Photography.

I was training to get my Private Pilot's Licence, but I am now unable to fly Solo due to my Autism, so that's out the window. Currently however, I have nearly 30 hours of IRL flying under my belt.

Served as a Cadet in the RAF Air Cadets for 6 years, continuing as Staff.


'Founder of Lightning Aircraft Industries'

A little about Lightning Aircraft Industries:

The British company, Lightning Aircraft Industries (LAI) was founded in 1936 as an aircraft manufacturer. They first started developing aircraft for the RAF and the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm, but would later expand to making aircraft for other nation's militaries. It made many successful aircraft like the TA-78 Air Shark, mainly its successor, the TA-78 Mk.II. After the end of WW2, the company moved to mostly making civilian aircraft like the AP-29 and more recently, the AP-29VL, it's most successful GA aircraft yet.
But they would continue to make military aircraft as well. The company is still in service today.


History of the Royal StarLight Airforce (RSLAF)

The Royal StarLight Airforce was formed in 1985 on Rockway Island (known also as the Isle of Rockway), a small island a couple miles off the North-East coast of Mainland England. It had been formed to help protect the island, but also to be sort of a support force for the Royal Air Force if needed. Another main reason was to create many jobs for the small island.

So far, the main Theatre of combat the RSLAF has seen was the Gulf war.
