In 1948 the RAAF formed Citizen Air force fighter squadrons in the main capital cities as an integral part of Australia's air defence. Made up of a mix of regulars and Part-Timers, these CAF squadrons successfully operated Mustangs, Vampires and Meteors for over a decade, providing an important contribution to Australia's defence. However, in 1960 flying ceased in the CAF when the RAAF could not afford to replace ageing aircraft. The CAF significantly reduced in size amnd were downgraded from "operational" to "auxiliary". In 1981 the CAF became the RAAF Active Reserve with more squadrons and people.
