  • Royston Webb Brooks, MBE, AE (Chinese: 布樂思, born 9 June 1936) is a British electrical engineer and retired air force officer of the Royal Hong Kong Auxiliary Air Force (RHKAAF). He was the last expatriate to serve as the commanding officer of the RHKAAF from 1988 to 1990. Brooks joined the RHKAAF in 1971 as a part-timer. He was promoted to the rank of squadron leader in 1985 and further promoted to the rank of wing commander upon assuming command of the RHKAAF in 1988. Throughout the years, he had taken part in various search and rescue missions. As the commanding officer, he was in charge of a wide range of flying services and related support services. He also oversaw a partial replacement of the fleet. In view of the transfer of the sovereignty of Hong Kong in 1997, he assisted in the preparation for transforming the RHKAAF from a paramilitary air force of the Hong Kong Government into a disciplined unit as the Government Flying Service. Brooks is a chartered engineer by profession. He moved from the United Kingdom to Hong Kong to start his career with the China Light and Power Company (CLP), where he worked his way up from a projects engineer to the chief projects engineer of the engineering projects department, and later the divisional manager of engineering of the engineering division. He was responsible for large-scale capital projects including the Castle Peak Power Station. After leaving the CLP and RHKAAF, he resided for a time in the United States before returning to the United Kingdom. (en)
