Those of us of a certain age can remember the
Thruxton Jackaroo; for me the aircraft in which I had my first powered flight, not counting trips as a passenger in the Herons of Jersey Airways and an Aer Lingus Viscount.
I have nothing but fond memories of it. It prepared me well for later training up to and beyond a PPL in Austers, although the Jackaroo was more forgiving in a landing.
