Will they go for a proper engine (ICE) or will it have to be electric?

I was on the staff at CFS when the Grob Course Design team was set up across the car park, I can’t believe it’s up for replacement already… (although that was nearly 30 years ago!). There was a suggestion box in their building for names for the Grob with a prize of a bottle of champagne, I wrote ‘Tutor’ as my suggestion but I’d left the station and gone back to Lyneham by the time the competition ended so I never received my prize although they couldn’t have tried very hard to find me…!

Unless of course there was more than one suggestion of that name…? Whatever, I still like to think I named it and I’m still flying it today.
