One Farnborough, there was a display consisting of a motor glider towing a sailplane. The motor glider had a retractable towline and displayed in synchro.
The sailplane pilot was the late Chis Rollings who started as a staff cadet with 613 (Halton) GS and became a national coach with the BGA.
He and I were on the same ATC Squadron (2204 Chesham) and I was a minor staff cadet alongside him.
He was the second ever instructor to be awarded 'B' Cat wings while still a cadet.
