RAF LINTON ON OUSE

RAF Linton-on-Ouse, built in 1937, has performed with distinction in its important roles in the RAF's history. Apart from flying many bombing raids over enemy territory during World War Two, losing over 1300 aircrew in the process, its fighters were an integral element of the nation's air defences from 1946 to 1957, and since then the current flying unit, No 1 Flying Training School has played a very important part in training Royal Air Force and Royal Navy aircrew (mostly pilots) for their intended roles.
In July 2018 it was announced that the RAF would drawdown from RAF Linton-on-Ouse following the retirement of the Tucano aircraft in October 2019.

They were going to, but after protest and disagreement by the locals they decided against it
