Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF)

This section features first hand accounts by a number of Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) personnel who trained in Alberta under the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan (BCATP). Included are the fond memories of training life from Colin Clark, John Aitken and Roy McIntyre. The tales of danger inherent in training are described by Bill Coulter, and illustrated by the life of Leslie Lissette, who sacrifices his life for those of his crewmates.
