Gaining an RAF pilots brevet in WW2
Danny 42c
While I might like to have a claim to fame over "word invention", "deadful" was a typo.
The RAF,s preference for UAS types for the post war officer ranks reminded me of a story of Royal Navy officer types
RNR were sailors pretending to be gentlemen.
RNVR were gentlemen pretending to be sailors and
RN were neither pretending to be both.
As you will learn later in my story, post war it seemed to me that, in the RAF, interest or competence in flying seemed to be secondary to the ability to having "officer like qualities"
