The RAFs new pilot training scheme known as the Provost - Vampire Sequence
The RAFs new pilot training scheme known as the Provost - Vampire Sequence, under which pilots qualify for their wings on jet aircraft, is now in operation and the first course of pilots has just been passed out at No. 5 Flying Training School at Oakington, Cambridgeshire. Pictured is Flying Officer Ws Burrows, an instructor at the Vampire Traing School, puting Auxiliary Pilot Officer W F Gough of Cranbrook, Kent, through his blindfold training. This training is to accustom pilots to finding their instruments quickly in the dark as they might have to in the event of a fire which filled the cockpit with smoke.
