Great pics and a great a/c - did my first solo in a DHC 1 in 1968 from ema - it's still my favourite light a/c to fly.

Remember my dad taking me flying in the Chipmunk when I was about ten years old and he showed me some aerobatics. He said to me "I'll show you the best stall turn in the Midlands"...and IMHO it was! Also recall climbing VMC on top with him and calling for a training fix on 121.5 sometime in the early 1960s from RAF Newton - Happy Days!
