They needed pilots to taxy these types of course. One day there were a couple of Gnats at the ERB which needed to go back to the hangar and rather than get a pilot down from the main camp, the SNCO i/c asked us microlight pilots to taxy them!
Taxiable Percival Provost in my day. I remember being chased around the airfield while supposed marshalling one.
