I flew 40 sorties in total ('Inky Swot' -no reflies!!!
) and this was broken down as 28 in the JP5, six in the JP5A and six in the JP5B. Interestingly all of the JP5B sorties were on 'Advanced JPs - twice in the AD Phase and three times in the SA Phase.

So the B designation was used on unit? Interesting stuff!
