A Thrilling Aviation Experience: Two Air Scouts and a Girl Guide Embark on a Gliding Adventure at Lasham Gliding Centre in the 1960s This photograph captures the moment of excitement and anticipation as two Air Scouts and a Girl Guide take their seats in the cockpit of a Slingsby T.21 glider at Lasham Gliding Centre in Hampshire, England, during the 1960s. The young Scouts, dressed in their uniforms, sit confidently in the front seats, ready to take on the role of pilots. The Girl Guide, with a determined expression on her face, sits in the back, eager to experience the thrill of gliding. The Scout Association, a leading youth organisation in the UK, provided opportunities for young people to broaden their horizons and gain new experiences. Gliding was just one of the many activities offered to its members, encouraging teenagers to learn about aviation and flying. Lasham Gliding Centre, located in the beautiful English countryside, offered courses for Scouts and Guides to learn the art of gliding. The Slingsby T.21 glider, a popular training aircraft, provided a safe and effective way for young people to learn the basics of flying. The photograph not only showcases the excitement and adventure of gliding but also highlights the inclusive nature of the Scout Association, allowing girls and boys to participate in this thrilling activity side by side. The image is a testament to the importance of providing young people with opportunities to learn new skills, experience new things, and build lasting memories.
