welcome to the ! the ex-raf aerial erectors association was founded in 1996 as a result of my trying to trace my old service friends. i had served as a rigger (aerial erector) for 12 years having joined the raf in 1956. for further details of my raf service as an aerial erector see the bottom of the people page. there are now over 400 riggers in the association and i am pleased to say it is still growing. we have a four monthly newsletter, the update, and a reunion is usually organised every other year. "" membership is free. if you are an existing or past raf aerial erector and not a member of the association then why not e-mail me now. eddie edwards (4178312), 85, church lane, meanwood, leeds, ls6 4np. e-mail:- [email protected] please note the contact page is currently out of order. further down this page there is information about the royal air force aerial erector school from 1950 to the present day. the photographs at the top of the page. the photograph on the left was taken by the late john drury at raf canewdon in essex in the summer of 1956 just prior to the site closing. the photograph shows two of the 360 ft steel chain home radar towers which were constructed in the 1930s to support the transmitter arrays. in the background three of the 280 ft wooden towers which supported the receiver arrays can be seen. one of the 360 ft steel towers was used to conduct the climbing tests which had to be passed before training as an aerial erector. the photograph on the right shows the one remaining 360 ft chain home tower still in service with the raf at raf stenigot in lincolnshire. this tower, now minus its top platforms, has been used to conduct all the climbing tests carried out by the aerial erector school since the school moved from raf chigwell in essex in 1956. the first and the last chain home radar towers. the photograph on the left above was taken in 1937 at an unknown site in south eastern england by william flegg. william was the foreman of the marconi construction team. our thanks to dick flegg for his kind permission to use his father's photograph. the photograph on the right above shows the only remaining chain home radar tower which has all the original platforms still in place. the tower is now located at the marconi works in great baddow but was originally built at raf canewdon near southend on sea. our thanks to ex-rigger stephen champion de crespigny who took the photograph in 2005. below are five more of the photographs taken by dick flegg's father, william flegg the foreman of the marconi construction gang. in the photograph on the left four of the riggers can be seen building the cantilever for the 200 ft platform. on the right five of the team are posing for the photograph, william flegg the foreman is squatting in front. two of the men are wearing their safety belts which appear to be modified post office linesmans belts. in the photograph on the left the full construction team can be seen at the base of one of the 280 ft wooden receiver towers. on the right some of the team are relaxing in the summer sunshine outside the site hut. william flegg and some of his rigging team off out for a well earned night on the town. these civilian construction crews were the forerunners of the trade of aerial erector in the royal air force. the construction of the chain home and chain home low radar stations around the british coastline created a need for men to service and maintain the aerial arrays rigged between the 360ft transmitter towers and masts and the 280ft wooden receiver towers. volunteers were called for from among the raf's electricians who were then known as electrician/riggers. these men worked aloft in bosuns chairs in all weathers and sometimes under enemy fire to repair and maintain the radar arrays. other men worked on the long distance hf communications aerials both in the united kingdom and overseas. there were no official training courses, the volunteers learnt their trade "on the job". soon after the end of the war a classroom/workshop was set up within the radio engineering unit at raf henlow to provide some basic splicing and rigging instruction to volunteers from airmen classed as general duties airmen in place of trained electricians. the aerial erector school. raf chigwell - raf canewdon 1950 - 1956. in 1950 as part of a major training reorganisation being carried out throughout the raf it was decided to institute a proper training course for aerial erectors. the former raf barrage balloon depot at chigwell in the outskirts of london was already being used by the central trade test board and several radar calibration units including no 4 ground radio servicing squadron. the station had a number of suitable empty buildings plus the area used for balloon anchorages could be used to erect training aerials and masts and thus chigwell was chosen to house the new training school. the redundant chain home radar station at canewdon near southend on sea had several 360ft steel towers that could be used for testing selected airmen for their ability to work at height and was only a two hour drive away from chigwell. above are two photographs taken at raf canewdon by ex-rigger dave ritchie during his climbing test in july 1954. in the one on the left, two of the 360ft chain home towers can be seen. the photograph on the right was taken on the top platform of one of the towers looking across to the next tower. one of the 280ft wooden receiver towers can be seen below on the the right of the picture. the first school staff consisted of a officer commanding. usually a general duties flight lieutenant or flying officer, one flight sergeant (chief instructor), one sergeant instructor, two or three corporal instructors and a workshop/stores airman. a twelve week course was devised for airmen who had successfully proved that they could work at height. the course consisted of instruction in aerial theory, fibre and wire rope handling, splicing, mast and tower erection, aerial construction, rough carpentry, soldering, feeder systems etc. instruction was also given on working from a bosun's chair and in the use of climbing irons on wooden feeder poles. on arrival at the aerial erector school from their basic recruit training, candidates were placed in the pool flight until they could be tested to ensure they were able to work at height. once they had successfully passed the height tests at raf canewdon they were put back into the pool flight until the next course commenced. while waiting in the pool flight for the their course to start the trainees were given a variety of general duties within the camp. the first course (1a) commenced on friday 22nd september 1950 and this initial course of 12 trainees passed out on the 16th january 1951. course 4d (july to october 1954) was typical of the courses conducted at raf chigwell. the course commenced with the climbing and working at height testing of 44 candidates at raf canewdon. when the height tests were completed on the 21st july, 14 of the candidates had failed the tests. in the photograph on the left trainee ron price can be seen climbing down one of the tower legs from the 360ft platform to the 200ft platform. in the photograph on the right trainee dave ritchie is being raised and lowered from the ground to the 200ft platform in a bosun's chair. some of the course 4d trainees posing with flt sgt alan roberts (far right) at the top of a 360ft tower. dave ritchie on the left posing with other members of his course. note the climbing kit then in use, denim overalls worn over normal blue battle dress uniform, seaboot socks, wellington boots and a standard gpo leather linesmans belt with pole strap. the remaining 30 successful trainees on course 4d completed the aerial erector course and passed out of the school on the 26th october 1954. it is interesting to note that all the trainees on course 4d were doing their national service. in the photograph above, on the left, is
