Guests for August31st The RN Black Cats - Lt Becky Frater Prior to her appearance at the Bournemouth Air Festival 2010 will be talking to us about her life in The Royal Navy's acclaimed helicopter display team. The team’s title “The Black Cats” comes from a combination of the Lynx wildcat featured on the 702 Squadron badge and the naval slang of ‘black catting’, which is a form of one-upmanship by having done something or owning something better than anyone else. Their acclaimed aerobatic display features high-speed crosses, close formation work and opposing manoeuvres. 24th The Tigers, Princess Of Wales Royal Regiment Parachute Display Team
These guys impressed me so much when I met them at Bournemouth Air Show. I love the quotes from two of them: Sergeant Dave Clarke - "One life, live it" and Lance Corporal Chris Smith - "Tomorrow is another day". They are the only parachute team to perform in Kosovo 17th The Red Arrows A great joy to have one of the pilots on again.

It can be a very dangerous and exciting sport Your presenter - Geneen Crossley ...started broadcasting in hospital radio, Some memorable events include:
Assisting backstage at the Royal Albert Hall . Interviewing many people from all walks of life but particularly George Bromley, Spitfire pilot, record breakers and people who have exceptional life styles, is she says a privilege.
Each interview is special for different reasons, the funniest probably being while touring Australia being invited to guest on a local radio show but shortly after arrival being asked to host the show then and there as the presenter had not turned up. Geneen did the show and was offered a permanent job but moved on! Geneen’s background is in training, a qualified lecturer in education she taught on a wide range of subjects.
She said that what got her through her mastectomy, as well as the love and support of family and friends, was the attitudes and experiences she learnt while doing her Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award. However impossible something seems if you want it you must keep on and never give up. Geneen was invited to St James' Palace recently
Training as a Life Coach was challenging and thought provoking. She also enjoys travelling and has visited over 50 countries. For Geneen's Hall of Fame of previous guests please see next page
