Summer of '76, a Hunter very nearly broke into the Withybush circuit instead of the Brawdy circuit......

Fortunately it was going fast enough for the pilot to tweak back on the control column and hit 2000ft before 2 miles, so no ATZ infringement.

Doubtless a nice blue note for the locals though - and no-one ever complained!
