National Service Pilots
Following my earlier appeal (August) I would like to hear from any National Service Aircrew (or pilots) who served in the RAF during the late 40's and early 50's for a series of articles I'm writing for an on-line journal.I had one reply from a Fleet Air Arm pilot (a most excellent response1).
However, in order for me to understand the RAF training methods (being ex-N.S. Royal Signals), I need to know where Basic Training was done; how Aircrew were selected: where Flight training took place and, if an N.S. man was selected as a Pilot Officer, where that took place...
I need all the help I can get...…!
Thank you.
