Lloyd Grose was certainly there in 1995 - he took me up for my air experience flight.
'So, young Hinecap - what do you want to do in the Bulldog today?'
'I dunno Sir - I've never been in one of these things before.'
'Well - they handle much quicker than the big ones, more agile, aeros etc..'
'No Sir - never been in an aeroplane before!'
'Ah. OK.'
He had me taxi, take off, some other stuff, loop, stall turn etc. It was fun. Still didn't make me want to do it on a regular basis tho

Complete gent.
