Be sure to join us in person on at our Aug. 14 meeting to hear a presentation by Steve Mercer, former member of the Canadian Armed Forces.

“Steve joined the army in 1990 when he was 19 and left the service in 2010, remaining a Dragoon for the duration of his army career.

During his service, Steve was deployed to the Balkans for 8 months in the mid-nineties where he saw action first hand.

From a modelling perspective, he grew up in Markham and built his first model at age 6 – today his main subject interest is aircraft.

Today Steve works for Porter Airlines where he is a heavy equipment instructor, receiving his certification shortly after retiring from the armed forces..

Steve currently lives on a 50′ cabin cruiser in Pickering with his wife Sandra who is originally from QC.”
