What trade is he ? Is he on one of the squadrons?  These might narrow it down a bit... :smiley:

I did 5 years at Lyneham back in the late eighties....home was Hercules block and the Survival Equipment Section.
Did my first posting at Abingdon, back in the days of Hawks, Hunters and Jaguars, plus the 2 university Air Squadrons and 6 AEF.

How much track time did you get here?  Do they do sessions or is it the full day?

Its a full day. Signing on at 9am, Briefing at 9.30. Sighting laps at about 10am, then usually 3 fixed sessions and then open pit lane for the rest of the day.
No limit to time on track or how many sessions you do. We usually manage 9 or more sessions in the day.
