Dennis Winterbottom, my Father, could qualify as Mr Chipmunk. He rued the day when the Bulldog came in saying that it was a mistake to use a basic trainer that you could get an ape solo in three hours. He was so happy when EFTS got the Chipmunk back which saw him through to his retirement which was after his 60th I believe. Sadly arthritis in the hands put paid to his motorcycling but my brother and I are keeping up the tradition. Correct about XVI at Laarbruch and CFS "Rissy" which was followed by many more postings instructing. For any of his old students that may read this I sympathise with the "withering criticism" but you probably deserved it.
