RFC Flight Training
My father was a pilot with RFC...his flight training took place in Egypt and while I have his Training Record of this training I do not have the location in Egypt.
After completion of flight training in Egypt he was posted to Mesopotamia before going to France.
He was posted to #9 Squadron at Proven France flying RE 8,s [the Harry Tate] He was shot down July 1917 ,he and his observer, a Scot named Brown, were both wounded but my father managed to land the a/c. My father was invalided home [Canada].
Does anyone know the location, in Egypt, where the RFC did their flight training?
