Making A Fighter Pilot
S an aid to the Air Force recruiting campaign, the Commercial Division of the NBS is broadcasting a series of five programmes based on the story of a New Zealand fighter pilot’s training, from the day he enlists until he gets his wings. A mobile recording unit visited various Air Force stations, and with the co-operation of the authorities, recorded interviews with personnel from the rank of C.O. to the trainees themselves, and including all those who play a part in an airman’s training. "Fighter Pilot" is heard on Sundays at 9.0 p.m. from the ZB’s, and will later be heard from YA stations. Our photograph, taken during the recording of "Fighter Pilot," shows a commentator interviewing ground staff who are checking engines used by airmen pupils
