On a more serious note I feel for a whole generation of Air Cadets who will have joined and served until aging out without ever having the opportunity to fly, not fly in I mean actually fly, an aircraft.
Is there ever going to be any "Air" in the Air Cadets ?
The SAH-1/FLS Sprint was designed as a possible Chipmunk replacement for the RAF. The big bulging canopy was to accomodate the wearing of bonedomes.
