Well considering it was all non radio, nil nav kit, no lid, and oily goggles, what made it all worthwhile was the 'FUN', and lots of friendly airfields who were pleased to assist if required.
The Swift was frequently the oldest machine at a show so always made welcome, and with the folding wings always could be found 'shelter' in our delightful weather which included snuggling in with the fire engines on several occasions.
