As an ATC cadet, normally you would fly in a Chipmunk, but on attending my first camp at Little Rissington in 1962, I was allocated a Provost flight.
This rather spoilt me for later flights in Chipmunks as with the Provost, I could actually watch how my 'instructor' (actually a doctor from station sick quarters) handled the controls and copy him, something which would have been impossible in the Chipmunk.
The Provost was XF680
