I also have the notes for Chipmunk T10 Same size as Wellington & Halifax.
Somewhere I have the Pilot's Notes for The Airspeed Oxford, but I cannot find it at the moment. I cannot recall that I was ever requested to hand over these copies on posting.
I wonder if there was a book for the DH82 (The Tiger Moth) ?
I have not got around to the mysteries of Photo Bucket but, if there is anything you are interested in, I will gladly send photo copies. All my photos are in Picasa 3.

I remember seeing the beautiful Polish girl of the ATA, picking up Spitfires from Lyneham in '41. She had a habit of taking off from the Peri Track if the field was wet. No runways at Lyneham then. fredjhh
