Just had a look in my logbook and I see that I had two of my early trips at Tern Hill with Dick - April 68 - one IF and the second Ex 7 ... ? Nothing further after that so he must have moved on to Pumas soon after? Last, and abiding memory of Dick was his flying boots!! He brought a Puma up to TH to demo this 'modern marvel' to we workers with the Whirlwind and 'Clockwork Mouse'. The 'piece de resistance' was the full power vertical climb with feet off the pedals - proved with raised boots clearly visible through the lower panels.
