This is our 31st Annual Reunion since we started in 1988.

Mike Evans, ex 70th Entry, air commodore and a founder member of the RHAAA will be our Guest of Honour. Mike will give the after dinner speech during which he will probably update us on the future of RAF Halton and the RHAAA. A visit to the museum and the church followed by a conducted tour of Halton House and lunch is planned for the Saturday morning but this has yet to be confirmed.
