Flying at Duxford
First flew gliders at Duxford in November 1961 and my last logged flight here in June 1962.
My first introduction to a Motor tow launch.
Was based at RAF Waterbeach at the time and offered a chance to fly a Turbulent. Missed it!! John Delafield flew it though.
RAF Duxford was my first posting as a Boy Entrant (SAC qualified Air Radar Mech) in April 1959.
Moonrakers Soaring Club, RAFGSA
This is where I learned to fly with John Williamson (CFI) and friends, in 1961.

Hi Brian, Can't put a face to your name. I first went to Upavon on 9th July 1961 and was active in the club until mid November, as I was stationed at waterbeach and started flying at Duxford then.
Hope you are well and still flying. Chris (micro)
