Odd Question.
Fred was a adult reservist at 16 Flight, North Melbourne.
Rank was Aircraftsman.
One of my younger broters was a cadet there ate the time I think.
I was in 16 Flight when I first came across Fred at an NCO traing camp at Laverton.
He was a cadet in the corporal's course.
I don't think he was in 16 flight at the time.
Hope that helps.

AIRTC Camden Flying School Facebook page
Hello Gentleman
Ive been frustrated with the AIRTC alumni pages that you can register to and not really get to see the others who registred. So Ive created the "AIRTC Flying School Camden Facebook page so we can share pictures and stories.
Please come and join and spread the word to others who attended.
I was at Camden Flying with AIRTC 1993-1995. Both Lobweins were there Senior and Junior. Im easy to remember since Im the only American at that course.
See you on the facebook group page..Past and present Flying Cadets of Camden

I had a great time in the AIRTC (2 Flt, Bexley) and ended up catching up with several ex-members during my service in the Army. Two of us ended up at 3RAR and later at JMOVGP. One is an ADFA grad (and we hold that against him!) Engineer in the Army. I'm also still in touch with my former Flt Cmdr, who is a cop.
Another, Matt Goodall, was tragically killed in the 2005 Seaking crash on Nias. No bullsh!t, he was a top bloke and a natural leader who could get along with just about anyone. A very capable person taken at just 25.

I have just come across this rather old post while trying to find info on 2 Flight.
I was there somewhere around 1991-1995
I remember Matthew Goodall also, such a shame.

This is starting to get a little creepy.
Trojan1981, it appears that you and I have also shared some similar tarmac albeit at slightly different times. I was an ex 2FLT cadet (86-90) before becoming a staff member at 18FLT. Your former FLTCDR isn't a cop anymore (I presume you mean PA?). Got out very recently. I was corresponding with him a week ago and we stalk each other on FB. I became FLTCDR/ CO of 2FLT/ 302SQN after him in January 2000.
Matt was between my times of service with 2FLT but I'd known of him via promo courses and the occasional tie up between 2FLT and 18FLT.
Russell, Lindsay is still late '60s I think. He retired from QF aged close to 65 a couple of years ago. I think he'd be 68 at the oldest? Perhaps a year younger or older depending on how strong my recollection is of when he finished up at QF.

I'm sure the PA you and Trojan are referring to was my FLTCDR at the time.
It would be great to see who else I can find from my time there
