I flew the S58T out of Beccles for two years and well remember the fun? of operating single pilot around the Leman/Inde fields plus rigs in the Dutch sector.

I think the big difference was that the Scout had no form of stabilisation. Operating low-level flying manually all the time using a one-inch map and then transferring to a Decca map and reading the dials was not something I would have attempted unless totally lost. Which of course I never was!! Whats the phrase, temporarily uncertain of precise location?
