This website is here to help keep alive the memories of those many service personnel and others lucky enough to have served at RAF Seletar Singapore which was an active RAF station from 1928 through to 1971 (but for a couple of years in WWII during the occupation by the Japanese).

RAF Seletar has an very colourful history laying claim to many fascinating events, visited by Royals, celebrities and global adventurers in its long years of operation. The RAF Seletar Association was formed in 1997 with the aim of bringing together anyone who has been associated with the Singapore RAF base in any capacity service or civilian so that they can renew old friendships and hopefully make new ones. If you’re not a member yet – join! Please contact Dave Taylor david.taylor@rafseletar.co.uk for membership enquiries

Members of the Seletar Association are now able to sign up to the new Member Forum – a place where members can have a chat with other members – create their own topics and .. basically get on with talking to other members. People not registered to the Association will be able to view the chat but will not until they register will they be able to use the forum: email webmaster@rafseletar.co.uk for registration details.

Where are all those people who were based at Seletar during the 60’s through until 71? We’d love to hear from you – this is a great way to catch up with old chums.

Stories & Memories
We were all there and we all have a story or three

that keeps the memories of Seletar alive in the old

grey matter! Want to share it here? Please!

The new website, apart from carrying more up-to-

date information about the association, will carry

more interesting stuff about our beloved base. So

if you have some experiences or events that went before that you saw, experienced and think it might

be worth including – let me have it – please.

An appeal from Syed Faiz Binyahya

“These are pictures of my Late Father, Abdul Karim Bin Ahmad, he served with the RAF Seletar Air Base from late 1950s to 1971 when he retires. From what i know he was attached to the engineering division.

When i was in my primary school days from 1968 to 1973, we received visit from Expats RAF colleagues of my dad to our house almost every other week, because of my mom’s cooking. I also remember my time at the base swimming pool during the school holidays and also playing hockey with the guys on the base.

As our house were burned down and i lost all of dad’s documents, awards and service medals”
