    Interesting! I wonder what centre refers to if this is the case? 80 degree flap sounds like a lot!

    Hello again Andy 🙂 I should have thought just to ask you anything radio related! That is fascinating though as I try to get my entry level electrics knowledge around how to boost a voltage that way. I think I know what this evenings reading will be about!

    Ex Brat – Unfortunately no its just a silver tube. If it was a nice glass one I would be keeping it :highly_amused:

    Thanks for the info guys! This is something outside the 26 reference numbers and on the vol 3s I do have they are usually listed as part number headings. Usually they start with a letter A-G then usually 6 numbers with a full stop in between. I have started to notice a bit of a trend. the A.1XXXXX numbers seem to be Gloster Meteor and the higher A numbers are Hawker Hunters?? I am properly confused bu the array of systems they must have used back then.

    I decided to read the pilots note more thoroughly and have found this. It answers most of my questions!

    This was where I saw that it might be for the attacker. I have the pilots notes for on version of the attacker and all fuel measurements are in gallons so I wasnt convinced.

    That being the case now why do a lot of the earlier aircraft have gauges in Gallons?

    A truly sad day 🙁 It almost as saddening as most of the folks my age asking “who’s that?” when I said hes died.
