Geoff Wright - pilot training - WW2 -People at War

I spent nearly four years in the RAF starting as PNB, Lords, RAF Brough, 11
ITW Scarborough.101 Squadron Ludford Magna, Leconfield. etc then Heaton Park three times before I eventually sailed for Egypt then to Bulawayo via Heliopolis in a Dakota. Then Chipmunks and Harvards until the atom bomb dropped after 150 hours of training. Sent home without our wings.
My story can be found in on the BBC site People at War, Geoff Wright, pilot training, Parts 1 to 5
