But it never occured to me that Hamble and Biggin Hill might compare notes. Why would they?
Having resigned from the RAF during my JP3 course, I went through the Hamble selection procedure, which was remarkably similar to OASC. At one interview, I was grilled by three gentlemen. On the desk, in front of them, were RAF documents which were obviously records of my service and flying instruction.
They really knew everything about me!
The RAF and Hamble clearly communicated.
