RAAF Station Narromine

RAAF Station Narromine was a Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) station located at Narromine, New South Wales, Australia. Narromine Airfield was requisitioned in July 1940 as part of the Empire Air Training Scheme during the Second World War.

Pilots who showed promise went on to advanced training at a Service Flying Training School. Others went on to different specialties, such as Wireless Schools, Air Observer Schools or Bombing and Gunnery Schools.

No. 618 Squadron RAF arrived at Narromine in February 1945 equipped with de Havilland Mosquito Mk.VI aircraft for anti-shipping attacks in the Pacific area of operations, however was disbanded on 14 July 1945.
