No. 3 Flying Training School is a Royal Air Force military training school, which manages elementary flying training for the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force[1][2] and also for the training of all non-pilot aircrew for the RAF and is home to the Central Flying School Tutor Squadron.
Although the school is nominally based at RAFC Cranwell,[3] only the multi-engine pilots and students on 57 Squadron fly from this aerodrome, with the Navy elements based at the nearby RAF Barkston Heath and the remaining trainee pilots based at RAF Wittering.
