The Shrivenham & Cranfield get together took place on 22 February at the College of Mechanical Engineering, Jawaharlal Nehru Technology University, Kukatpally, Hyderabad 500085.

The get together was organised in conjunction with the Institutional of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) lecture Post nubes lux: Aerospace propulsion 'after darkness light'. This lecture was Presented by Professor Riti Singh is Professor Emeritus of Cranfield University, UK. We stuck to the pre decided schedule despite serial bomb blasts in Hyderabad the previous day.

The alumni travelled from Bombay, Pune and Delhi to attend the get together. I would like to personally thank Mr. Ravi Shankar for co-ordinating with the alumni in Hyderabad, Cdr.'s Suresh & Deshmukh for taking all the trouble and pain in travelling from far of places to attend the get together. I would also like to thank Mr. Prabal Sarma of the IMechE for organising the venue.

There was ample interaction between Prof. Singh and the alumni. Quite a few old stories were remembered and discussions on the wider gambit of defence education in India took place. Brig. Antony was very fondly talked about. Mr. Rama Rao showed old photographs of Cranfield and also remmbered his experience of being the first occupant of the Lancaster Hall.
