What a wonderful thread. Here's my very modest contribution. I was on a weeks course at 2 Gliding Centre RAF Kirton-in-Lindsey in August 1964. Instructors were F/Lt Rayner, F/O Hewitt, F/Lt Johnson and F/O Bullivant. Aircaft were Mk3's WT871, XA302, WT911 AND WT910 and Sedbergh WB948. My three solos were on XA302 which I'm told is hanging up in the RAF Museum at Hendon - is this true?
