Must be about 40 ? years since the last 4 ? Part series about becoming a RAF chap. Some started of on piston Provosts ( or was that the movie) and others on the Jet Provost. Early days for all thru Jet training. Flying the Blunty looked like fun.
I met a young fella in the UK that did do all,Jet training, Provost, Gnat, Hunter T7 and operationally Buccaneers for the Navy. Lost that front seat having skipped the Buc off the glassy Channel on a misty morning, doing a simulated low level shipping strike, 50 ft at 500 kts. That must be some adrenaline rush!
He had never flown in a propellor driven aircraft !! Having a go in an Auster he was gobsmacked that this “thing” could fly with just a piece of wood flinging around out front and making all that Gipsy Major noise.
