In the 1960's when I did a Flying Scholarship at Scone my instructor gave me a lesson in the results of wake turbulence. A C 47 was in the circuit with gear problems and he got me to slide in behind him assuring me he knew what he was doing.In a fraction of a second without warning I was looking at the trees above my head through the Chipmunk canopy - never forgot it.
