East Midland School of Flying

I joined EMSF in 1973 after 2 years learning to fly Chipmunks in East Midland UAS. I well remember flying with Frank Spencer and Lesley Hardy at Castle Donnington. Incidently Chipmunk G-AMUF that I flew there is still going strong! I am still flying and have been with Monarch for the last 21 years.
My amusing anecdote is that ATC had a habit of asking for Captain's name and number on board. A certain pilot had the surname Haddock so his reply was " Captain Haddock with 3 soles on board".
