75 posts in five days! There is something very special about the Chipmunk.

In my time at UBAS (67-69), we did not have stopwatches, nor do I remember a panel clip. Was there something else there or just an empty space?

The UBAS fleet was fitted with UHF in mid-68, which was actually a backward step, since all the other Shawbury-based aircraft - Marshalls' Vampires and Piston Provosts - were fitted with VHF.

My knowledge is limited to the 10 Channel Crystal Controlled 1985/86 Tx/Rx VHF config (see pics below
Coffman Starter, thanks for the picture. I had never seen the interior before. They don't make 'em like they used to, thank goodness! How much did that weigh and where was it mounted?

what were the Shuttleworth people thinking?
Dora-9, I absolutely agree with you. Having flown both versions, the T10 in Canadian colours looks awful to me.
