RAF BRTC from a parents point of view

My son is a couple of weeks in now and the little bit of info I did manage to find out beforehand came predominantly from this page, but I was still woefully ill prepared for what was to come. To help other people I have started a blog of how it’s been so far. I can’t put a link on here but if anyone fancies a read please do feel free to inbox me and I’ll reply with a link to it :smile:

They had a 2-week break for the Coronation but it all went well. He is at Cosford now (Avionics)
He says he wished he had practiced ironing more before starting!
