Feather 3. Fantastic - thanks a million. Just the info that I needed.
411A. Thanks also for info. I think that the aircraft you are referring to is the Harpoon - a much beefed up version of the original Hudson. Thanks for offer of the handbook but not needed now. My first flight ever was in a Hudson in 1948. Sat on the freight floor with no seat belt along with a few other kids who went up on a short test flight from Camden, NSW.
No one mentioned how to clear one's ears and it hurt like hell.
