Flt Lt Alex Stathopoulos
Officer Commanding RAF Section
​
I first joined the CCF in 2011 whilst teaching at Wilson's school. In 2013 I received my commission at RAF Cranwell and transferred to Royal Russell CCF to take over the section from Sqn Ldr Ray Dunkley. I am currently a teacher at Royal Russell school where I am the head of computer science and the housemaster of Madden house. I have been teaching since 2004. My favourite activities in the CCF are shooting and whitewater rafting. I don't like heights.

My first experience with the CCF was as a pupil at Royal Russell I joined in Year 9 and never looked back. As a cadet I got to the rank of Cadet Warrant Officer and once I had left school I became an adult instructor within the unit. I currently work as a Paramedic for the London Ambulance Service. My favourite activities within the CCF are flying and adventurous activities like high ropes.
