"INSTRUCTORS, ETC." (early 1966)

This was the official list, although its proper layout in columns cannot be duplicated here. And why would students need to know initials, let alone a Christian name? However, some of the flying instructors' names have been mentioned previously: here and here.

Mr Nugent - Principal
Capt Critchley - Chief Instructor
Capt Pow - CFI
Capt Hamilton - Instrument Training Flight Capt

Flying Instructors (Captains):
Sweetman, Foote, Holmes, Peddell, Pankhurst, Hurrell, Stone, Capon, Kirkpatrick, Lockhart (CFI Aero Club).

Mr Oldfield - Chief Ground Instructor

Ground Instructors (Messrs):
Robertson, Storie, McCormack, McGregor, McRae, Hunter.

Mr Thomson - SATCO
ATCOs (Messrs):
McFarlane, Mitchell, Craig.

Mr Calder - Bursar
Major Pitt - Welfare Officer
Mr Stewart - Ass. Welfare Officer [sic]
Miss Carr (?) - Matron
Mrs Baillie - Timekeeper
Mrs Davis - Record-keeper

[EDIT]
Among those missing from that list were:
H.J. (John) Brown - Link-Trainer instructor. And did he have an assistant?
J.E. Allen - Navigation instructor
L.A. Mackay - Catering Manager
E. Hodson - Chief Engineer
