When I was doing the PPL navigation stuff I sometimes reminded myself of the Lysander pilots of WW2 flying to some deserted field in France guided by a torch. Not even so much as Sky Demon to help!
Reading Geoffrey Wellum "First Light" was another eye opener.
Compared to those guys I am certainly a woos.
