Thanks Barnstormer – received OK and filed ready for use.

Hi Brian;
I emailed you a 1.38 Mb (compressed) image that should print out clearly. Next size higher resolution, was about 4.2. Mb, and I have it waiting in a file if you need it. But one I emailed you should work, I hope. Interesting project you are researching…

Many thanks for your offer Barnstormer,

I’ve emailed you – I misread the date it should have been 10 May, not 19 May.

Avion Ancien,

It is indeed part of the Flight archive, but the copy I’ve printed is not very clear – most of it’s OK for reading, but the Figures lack clarity. As I’ve replied to Barnstormer my copy is such that I misread the date.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Is this issue not part of Flight’s online archive? It’s probably worth having a look at the website. My areas of interest don’t usuallly take me back this far in time but the Flight online archive is invaluable to someone who only returns to the UK infrequently.

I have most of the early runs of Flight, including 1917, and would try to help you with a high res scan. But there is no 19 May, 1917. They published one for 17 May,1917. Which image/diagram do you need? I have a great many duplicate issues of Flight and other titles, from 1909-1940s, or so..(Some loose, some in bound years) that accumulated when I was in the process of completing the runs for various years, if anyone is interested in trading for?

Much obliged T-21 – the pointer I needed.

Could try Cranfield Institute Library. They have every copy of “Flight” bound and open to the public.
