@Birdseed501 I passed mine in the June of 1982 at 612VGS at RAF Benson flying the Venture T2 motor glider. If my memory serves me right, for the final test circuit, the take off was performed under power, you then cut the engine on the down wind leg, finishing with a glide approach/landing.
@Birdseed501 As promised and thanks to the info you provided please see photos. I've found Simon Ticehurst's final resting place at All Saints Church at Bisham. A peaceful setting right by the Thames. @MaxK_J@RobAviation
@ShawnRyan762 We must not, and we will not ever forget this generation of warriors and hero's that gave so much that we might live the freedoms we have today. ๐บ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ง

@IanIanbygrave@pettore A true hero and one of England's finest. He represents the reality of what it meant to be an RAF pilot during the darkest days of the Battle of Britain. We should never ever forget him and his compatriots
@88Keezer My Dad introduced my to Oscar Peterson when I was about 4. I met you and fell in love with your playing many years later. Both musical heroes of mine.
