The halving of the AST Chipmunk fleet from four to two during the course of 1966 has already been mentioned in
this and the next two posts, and
here.
The University Air Squadron Chippies were another matter. This photo was taken from the Tower (probably on the same winter's afternoon as the two in my previous post). A close look at the nearer of the two a/c reveals the R/H spin strake just forward of the tailplane.
Our a/c didn't have that safety feature...
