  • A Escola de Treino de Voo de Serviço N.º 4 foi uma unidade de treino e instrução da Real Força Aérea Australiana (RAAF) que operou durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial. Formada em Fevereiro de 1941, começou a realizar voos no mês seguinte. Uma de oito escolas de treino de voo de serviço criadas pela RAAF para realizar o treino intermédio e avançado dos novos pilotos australianos, como acordado no Plano de Treino Aéreo da Comunidade Britânica, foi formada em Geraldton, na Austrália Ocidental, e operou aviões Avro Anson. Dois esquadrões de reserva foram criados a partir desta escola quando a Guerra do Pacífico começou, embora nunca tenham entrado em combate. A actividade de voo foi reduzida perto do final de 1943 e a escola foi dissolvida em Maio de 1945, tendo graduado mais de 1000 pilotos ao longo da sua história. Mais tarde foi recriada como Unidade de Base Operacional N.º 87, sendo posteriormente renomeada Unidade de Cuidado e Manutenção Geraldton em Maio de 1946. Em Setembro de 1947, a unidade foi dissolvida. (pt)
