I was once joed to 'nav' a baby pilot (he had wings) from Coningsby to St Athan in the Chipmunk. He had already planned the trip but I think my boss had second thoughts and wanted a little more experience in the cockpit. I had a look at his route. Mast hopping all the way as they would be easy to see. Thankfully it was cancelled.
