UK base tours??

Post by GummyBe4r » Wed Jan 25, 2012 3:45 am

A very early morning to all FC people and hope you have had a good week so far, was just wondering if anybody could help with giving me any advice on how I'd go abouts either sorting out a base tour and who I'd need to speak too to sort one out

Regards

You'd be best off starting with the C.R.O. - Community Relations Officer.

Most bases have a website with details of who to contact.

Whilst these may not be exactly what you had in mind they might give you a start at getting a bit of a glimpse behind the scenes at three bases in Lincolnshire ….

North Kesteven Council is running three tours to RAF stations. RAF Cranwell, RAF Digby and RAF Waddington. Not sure about the rules for getting a place

If anyone would like a booking form for the ‘North Kesteven District Council Behind The Scene Events’ mentioned in posts 3 & 4 please PM me an email address and I will send a copy over – please be patient for the reply as I’m changing my PC tomorrow!
