Hello Forumites
I am sure an simple question but, in UK squadron ORB’s, were the airborne and landing times entered as GMT or Local time?

Re: GMT or Local

ORBs and the like are definitely local time

RAF Signals Manual AP1083

All RAF Units in the UK will use British Summer Time and British Double Summer Time, when in force, for all purposes except the time of origin of messages sent across time zones.

Local time in the area is to be used in all communications between units (including other services) in the same time keeping area.

Regards

Martin
