CoffmanStarter, GARWB belonged to the Sherwood Flying Club at Tollerton (Nottingham) for quite a few years (in the late 1960s/early 1970s) Will have to check but think I did my first night solo in her amongst quite a few other flights.

Recall one of our instructors who fell in love with a French lady and one of the instructors flew GARWB to Marseilles for the wedding! The major task was sorting all the crystals for the radio frequencies on the way and having to change same at each stop.
