Re: RAF groundcrew numbers.

Tony

Looking at the actual figures for 51 Squadron:-
Flying personnel (Officer Aircrew and Airmen) was about 108
Non-flying personnel was about 287

The Squadron example had about 2.65 ground support and ground crew for every 1 individual flying crew member.

The RAF Station and Station HQ would have had its own separate permanent work and defence force.
