Preserving Heritage, Honouring Service, Building Fellowship

No 201 (Guernsey’s Own) Squadron Association brings together serving personnel, veterans, former members, families and friends of No. 201 Squadron to celebrate its history, preserve its heritage and strengthen the bonds of fellowship that have defined the Squadron for generations.

With a distinguished history stretching back more than a century, No. 201 Squadron has played a significant role in military aviation and maritime operations. Today, that proud legacy continues through the Squadron's serving personnel at RAF Lossiemouth, who uphold the traditions, professionalism and operational excellence for which 201 Squadron is renowned.

The Association provides a lasting link between past and present, supporting reunions and social activities that ensure the Squadron's story continues to be remembered and shared.

Whether you are currently serving, a former member, a family connection, you are warmly welcome to join us in honouring the past, supporting the present and preserving the legacy of No. 201 Squadron for future generations.

United by history, connected through service, and proud of 201 Squadron's continued role at RAF Lossiemouth.
