My first light aicraft flying experiences were gained with the Air Training Corps. I took this shot at RAF Abingdon as a cadet waddled out to a waiting Chipmunk for an air experience flight (the emergency use parachutes made walking very difficult). If he was lucky he would have done some aerobatics while airborne. In the background you can see some VC-10s awaiting their tanker conversion. The RAF had just acquired these aircraft from British Airways
