Varsitys...
.....were the first RAF aircraft I flew during flying training at Topcliffe. AEOs and AEOps trained on them. Primarily as wireless operators but also as crew members with a variety of WO and SNCO instructors, pilots and navigators (some with interesting mitteleuropean accents).
Thanks to the wonderful folks at Newark Air Museum I was able, 50 years later, to take my son and my twin grandchildren into the very first Varsity I flew in.
