I was a colleague of John Winterbourne, as a fellow Examiner on Basic Squadron HQ CFS in 1974 (the selection test for Exam Wing at the time was, "could you spend a wet weekend in Sleaford with this chap?"). I think John went on for a few more years after me. He was a lovely man and an inspiration to many. A great character, I recall him eating an ice cream with absolute concentration whilst Doug Barden (OC Basic Sqn)drove the staff car - quite a feat, the rest of us were terrified!
