No 93 Entry RAF College Cranwell
 

1st March 2018 will be the 50th anniversary of No 93 Entry graduating from the RAF College :D. It is planned to hold a suitable event to commemorate the occasion and we are trying to contact all of the entry. If you were on "93" and have not been contacted, please PM me.

Number 93 RAF Cranwell
 

Do we think their eyesight might have gone:8

Pardon?

I think it's Thursday. ;)

93 IOTC graduated in 1985/6 didn't they and unless my maths are poor that's not 50 years. Or is this the elite that went all before us Sleaford Tech types - and stop shouting.............................:ugh:

This'll be 'the elite that went before' as we graduated in June 1986 - missed the party again

It would help if they stopped re-numbering Courses all the time. I was on 172 IOT in '65 :)


[Not at Cranwell, of course, but Sunny Feltwell]

When did the three year course end?

Can't say when it ended but, it started in 1954 with 69'. April 54 to April 57'.

Thanks. I was at Swinderby from November 1956 to August 1957 when we used to bump into Cranwellians in the Saracens Head in Lincoln

brakedwell asked: 90 Entry was the last of the 3 year courses; the 2½ year courses began with 91 Entry in October 1964 and ended with the graduation of 101 Entry in March 1973.

The first Graduate Entry was 1GE in September 1970, so for a brief period the Flt Cdt and GE schemes ran in parallel.

But in 1978-9 came the Henlow :yuk: merger - and the RAF College 'went comprehensive' in the eyes of many...:hmm:

Reunion
 

[great idea for a reunion but lets create a designated website

I was on 39 IOT in about 1980 does that count? It feels like 50 years ago....

And I was on 60 IOT in early 82 so how does that numbering thing work again?

I thought my first IOT course as a flt cdr was 57 ("B" Sqn) in Jan 83

57 IOT started 36 years ago on 18 Oct 81.

So maybe it was 67 I was with.. long time ago

Those we are still trying to locate
 

With just over a month to go to our reunion there are 2 members of the Entry that we have not been able to locate. They are:

Pete (PE) Dobbs an Engineering Officer
Adrian (AJ) Evans GD/Nav

If any one has any information on either of them that may help us locate them please PM me.

Thanks

I was there too Bigpants but I’m sure that was 1979. But then memory, eyesight etc are all fading now.

You youngsters have nothing to worry about.....yet. Now where is my zimmer
