Research wouldn't be fun if finding things was too easy! ... I am sure there is a railway warrant out there somewhere ....


Anyway, more stories on ITW please ...... I believe that the subjects taught were:
  • RAF history, structure and law;
  • hygiene (including “infectious diseases”);
  • theory of flight;
  • basic navigation (using maps, charts and astronomy);
  • aircraft recognition;
  • armaments;
  • meteorology;
  • mathematics;
  • morse code (using keys and light).
Does that sound right? Are there any key subjects missing?
