Biography

Robson was born in Wanstead, East London, but was raised near Carmarthen, Wales. 1982 he won a scholarship to join the RAF as a pilot and was an operational pilot in the RAF for over twenty years. During that time he flew for three years on the Victor air-to-air refuelling tankers, for four and a half years as a flying instructor on Jet Provost and Tucano training aircraft and for eight years at Brize Norton, Oxfordshire, as co-pilot, captain and instructor on the VC10 aircraft.

While based in the Falkland Islands in 1995 weather conditions were too bad to fly in, and his navigator said "Oh, for goodness sake! Do something useful. Go write a book or something!"
