New Patron for Young Eagles announced  

The Royal Victorian Aero club has confirmed the new Patron of Young Eagles Victoria is the RAAF Roulettes. The Roulettes are the Royal Australian Air Force's elite formation aerobatic display team that showcase Air Force flying skills to the Australian public. Team members are flying instructors at the Air Force's Central Flying School, East Sale in Victoria. The Roulettes currently fly Pilatus PC-9/A aircraft, however, the history of Air Force aerobatic teams dates back to well before the introduction of the PC-9/A.

Young Eagles provides an opportunity for young people, aged between 12 and 17 years of age, with an interest in aviation to experience the joy of flight.
