My first ever flight was in a Cadet Mk 3 at RAF Swanton Morley in 1966. First solo in the Mk 3 February 1968. I can still remember the pre take off checks (CISTRS) as taught back then.
Happy days, sliding across a snowy airfield in an open top glider. Thanks to everyone at 611 VGS who made it happen for me and hundreds like me.
