Rename
There is no doubt that this is a wonderful thread and whatever the intention of Cliff whwn he set it up, the fact remains that it has gone on to provide wide ranging discussions on various topics.
That being so it must be kept alive at all costs even if that involves a change of title.
As one of the few other than pilot aircrew categories who has contributed in a small way to this thread, might I suggest that the title could be amended to " Gaining an RAF aircrew brevet in WW11 and after".
Perhaps this would encourage a few more non pilot types to dip their toes in the water.
Meanwhile more power to FED's elbow, I look forward to reading more of his story
Danny,
Thanks for all your stories so wonderfully and amusingly told and hopefully we shall still all hear the odd pearl of wisdom from you .
Cheers
