84th Entry

Over and Out

By Squadron Leader Ray Tillbrook

Published in 1998

By Forces and Corporate Publishing Ltd

To mark the closure of RAF Locking.

Ray worked for Keith Runacres at the time and Keith loaned his copy of the very rare book to Tony Mooney at the 60th Anniversary Reunion of the start of our Apprenticeship on 18 and 19 September 2016 in Weston-super-Mare. Tony intended to scan it to PDF for this website but after scanning only three pages he came across a copy of the book quite by chance on the RAF Locking Apprentice Association website. It’s a large file and takes 30 seconds on more to load on a fast broadband connection but it’s a good read with an interesting section about Apprentices. Click the button below to see it.
