MY first ever aircraft solo was in Chipmunk #18073, November 9, 1956 in Centralia. I was on the first RCAF course 5609, to use the Chipmunk as a basic trainer. Watching the videos brought back some great feelings, not to mention a couple of scary ones.

Aren’t they just a beautiful aircraft. Okay, I pretended that I was in a Spitfire. And thankyou for sharing your journey
