History of this Location | |
RAF Little Rissington was opened for Flying Training Command in 1938. The Central Flying School (CFS) had a base here but being high up on the Cotswold ridge, the weather was always a challenge for intensive flying and it eventually closed as an RAF flying station and was handed to the Army.
