charliegolf: Re: "Aerocrats"
PS, the DI, Sgt Robinson insisted on calling me, 'aerocrat'.
In 1964 Aircraft Apprentice entries ceased and the new split of Craft and Technician Apprentices was introduced. The recruiting advertisements of the time invited young men (no women) to apply to join the Royal Air Force as Technician Apprentices and become Aerocrats - much to the derision and amusement of all serving personnel.
