Ah Shenington....

As a former PPL inhabitant of Swalcliffe, you give me great memories of my few but memorable gliding flights......

There used to be an open cockpit "overhead wing" twinseat glider at Shenington. Does she still exist? I remember her being blue but I could be mistaking

I think the old T-21 was scrapped along time ago...but they do now have a red one that flies.

Later i flew a PA28 to Dahlemer Binz in western Germany in the Ardennes, they had several of these old gliders there, beautiful airfield for a club outing!
