In may 1978 I got a back seat ride from Brawdy to Wittering in an almost brand new Hawk,there had obviously been a little ‘bar talk’ and we ended up lined up side by side with a single seat Hunter for a standing start race…
We got off to a good start but I was not surprised to see/hear the Grunter go barrelling past our stbd side before we lifted off 😀
Both the Hawk and Hunter pilots were off to a reunion at witterlitz,I was off to see a wee blond in rutland…all for the price of prepping the jet on monday morning…aaaahhh those were the days 🙂

edit… 35 mins low level to Witterlitz and 25 mins hi level back to Brandy…the only way to travel LOL
