Well done lelo44- I am sure you have started a long thread!
The general manual for flying in the RAF is the dreaded AP129 and coincidentaly as I clear up my 'residence secondaire' I have found a 1954 copy which is fascinating.
I flew the Chipmunk in ULAS,RAF and subsequently as 'famil' pilot for cadets, prior to a commercial aviation career, amassing probably over 750 hrs on type. I have some interesting experiences with cadets in the back with access to the rear magneto switches!!
Needless to say we survived happily
Bon chance with the thread- I will look up my logbooks next time in London and see if your baby features
