RAFFCA Discount Deals

RAFFCA Member Discounts

One of the benefits which membership of the Royal Air Force Flying Clubs Association (RAFFCA) brings to all of us is discounted purchase deals on a range of items from major suppliers. A wide range of deals has now been available for over a year using the RAFFCA discount for headsets, GPS, kneeboards, radios etc etc. All club members - both military and civil are fully entitles to make use of these discounts.

Pooley's Flight Equipment

Sebastian Pooley, Managing Director of Pooley's, has kindly agreed to offer RAFFCA members a 10% discount on their products. To receive this discount members need to enter the promotional code 'military' during checkout stage 2 on the website. Unfortunately this discount is not available on electronic items, however the company will do their best to price match and have suggested that individuals call Pooley's Elstree office where best prices can be discussed.
