The dreaded 3 Dayglo stripes on T8191!

My first two flights in T8191 were on the 29th September 1964, the rest in BB694. The only problem with Roborough, as I recall, was the weather. I don't know how many hours we BRNC cadets were supposed to get but I totalled only 6hrs 35min over a period of seven weeks having gone solo after 4hrs 5min. By comparison my ATC Flying Scholarship of 30hrs, at Elstree in Chipmunks in the summer of '62, was fully completed in three weeks.
