Dr. Graham Rood FRAeS

It is with great sadness that Farnborough Air Sciences Trust has announced that Dr Graham Rood, Trustee Secretary and Curator of the FAST collection, has passed away following a recent stroke. Over many years, following an outstanding scientific career at the former Royal Aircraft Establishment and its successors, Graham has been at the heart of FAST’s creation of a recognised world-class aeronautical archive. The Trustees and Volunteers at FAST will miss him enormously and send their deepest condolences to his family.
