Air Cadets Grounded

POBJOY. I reply to your earlier, on June 8th 1961 !!! I aerotowed a Prefect from St Eval to Halesland, with Freddie Hillman as the towee. We had arranged that if we were running short of fuel by the time we overflew Christchurch, I would cast him off. But I decided we could indeed make the whole distance and pressed on- much to the discomfort of Freddie, who by then was freezing and seized up on the controls. JP.
