Boundary Road would be classed as Chatham - 1404 squadron (wartime squadron number)
I saw somewhere that an A.T.C. cadet flew with a pilot from some factories, when the pilot
was delivering a land plane from that factory. The under carriage lever was too far, for the
pilot to stretch to, so a cadet was allowed to operate it. Whether he had parachute training ?
I believe the reason was - either the second pilot or flight engineer, used to operate the lever.
A record I found today said an A.T.C.cadet L. Ingram of the Tamworth Squadron had been
killed, when the pilot survived. The plane was returned to factory, for repairs.
I dont think I would have been allowed to remain in the A.T.C. if I had joined. I had Asthma.
