Seem to remember hearing that NS had, as a condition for acceptance for training as pilots, to undertake a period of R.Aux.A.F. service after NS. Any truth in this ?
Correct. I think it was 5 years, subject to being within a reasonable travelleing distance of one of the Sqns. All came to an end with the Sandys review, which, among other things, disbanded all the (20?) R Aux A F fighter units.
