I think this must have been dependent on the school/location as I was also in an RAF section and we flew in (small) planes maybe once a term. For maybe 30 minutes, and lots of waiting around, but was fun. Got to do a fair bit of aerobatics as well. Obviously we weren't flying solo (although there were a handful that did a course that culminated in a solo flight) Also went gliding once.
