Unfortunately, you're right, Genghis! But I was there 5 years earlier as well learning to fly Rogers Aviation's brand-new Cessna 150s. We also had a good nose around in the College of Aeronautics hangar where there were such things as a TSR2, Boulton Paul P111, Sea Hawk, CF 100 to name but a few. The circuit was also shared with a Hunter (doing some research on runway contamination) and a Morane Saulnier Paris. When I did my flight testing, the staff were looking forward to getting 3 Jetstreams to replace the old Doves - one of which had been re-possessed from a criminal!!
