Having returned to RAFC after 4 years of university and happy Chipmunking, 'they' ordained that we should have some exercise on Wednesday afternoons. "Went for run on north airfield" didn't specify how long the 'run' was and clever university graduates had established the definition of 'running'.... So a quick sprint to the senior entry car park before a drive to the bright lights of Sleaford / Grantham / Newark met the definition!

'They' then decreed that we should submit monthly Sitreps stating our extramural activities. After one of our number wrote "Week One - nothing to report, Week Two - nothing to report, Week Three - nothing to report, Week Four - filled in Sitrep' the requirement was quietly dropped...

Were Finningley JP pilots required to be ex-JP QFIs? Or could any RAF pilot apply?
