President
Frank’s career started back in 1979, progressing to licensed aircraft engineer at Bankstown Airport. His storied career has led him to directing and managing his family group of companies to this day. A private pilot for over a decade, and an SFC board member since 2012, he has played a key role in transforming the club into the largest flying club on the eastern seaboard. As a part owner of a Cirrus SR22, he continues his love of flying.

A financial strategy partner and advisor to government, Steven’s professional experience spans law and corporate finance. A member of SFC’s board since 2014, Steven has helped transition the club from local and inward-looking to a leading flight training organisation that has invested heavily in a new fleet. Steven continues to help shape SFC’s strategic vision.
