A quick lunctime stab: A Slingsby Venture motor glider variant?
"I hold that it is quite wrong for the soldier to want to exercise command over the striking forces. The handling of an Air Force is a life study, and therefore the air part must be kept under Air Force command."
Viscount Montgomery of Alamein

Nope, but you're in the right area.

Here's un peu plus...
The T61 is a bit too modern for me! When I was in the ATC (10F squadron) we flew in T31 Tandem Tutors and I was in the middle of building a 1:6 scale flying model from Slingsby's original blueprints when my MS forced me to give in.

What's this? Not even a guess? There aren't many more clues I can give...
