Can you imagine how cold Derek Piggott and his ATC cadet felt like at 17,000' in cloud in the venerable Barge?
Many a happy day in the Barge and Mark III, but didn't get to fly the primary left at the back of the GS hangar (that's when they were Gliding Schools, long before the change to Volunteer and Squadron).
Certainly remember a blue warm day with nothing soaring, so was dressed only in T-shirt and shorts, then the thermals started, and by 5000' I did start to feel cold, but still happy as a skylark
