Thanks for the help
Could be that ABZ uni club was flying, which would explain the totty.
Yep it was Aboyne very friendly bunch who were very welcoming to my spur of the moment arrival.
My first instructor was a retired big wig from the RAF who couldn't have been more of a gent. Great instructional style as well.
My second instructor was a current Tornado pilot. Again couldn't be faulted on instruction given. Let me do the lot. Felt as if I was going to scrap my backside off the deck when I landed it though.
And the nice chap has written fast track on my sheet.
That badge system though makes me feel as if I am back in scouts.
