Shackman - Could that have been the same Dave Waddington who sent me solo in the JP4 at Acklington in 1967?
Hello Shackman, yes that would have been my father. My sister was born in Amble in 1967, so we were there exactly then.
Here's a picture of The Linton Gin Team from 1969 ( Including reserve pilots ). Dave Waddington is second from the left. I can name the other pilots should anybody be interested.
