The No. 5BFTS will be having its annual reunion on Sept. 16-18, 2011, at the Park Inn, Bedford, England.

The No. 5BFTS Association (Number 5 British Flying Training School) will be having its annual reunion on Sept. 16-18, 2011, at the Park Inn, Bedford, England.

These WWII British cadets were trained as pilots at Riddle Field, Clewiston, FL, and Carlstrom Field, Arcadia, FL, from 1941 to 1945 by Embry-Riddle.

We wish to contact the “lost” 5BFTS cadets, their instructors, friends, and the past employees of Embry-Riddle and encourage them to attend the reunion in England. Special events are planned.
