Spot on ShotOne, and don't restrict that to cadets. I can tell you for fact that as a 35 year old Chief Tech in 1988, I could not believe my good fortune having passed through the Ground Engineers course, to be allowed to experience the new world of aircraft operations on Albert. I went on to clock up more than 5500 hours, despite my own suggestions in posts elsewhere, not always in a hammock. As an ex ATC cadet myself, the Chipmunk, T21 and T31 all contributed to my enthusiasm to become a member of the RAF, wherever they put me.
Two seats ? I will take that any day. A recent once in a lifetime treat for me.
