Hi James
1. Landed using 'goose necks' , and Christmas Trees A.K.A Glide path indicator) 11/5/1944.
I would hazard a guess they had been used for a long time, even 'when we didn't have numbers cos everyone new each other'

2. Can't remember how many goose necks etc, would guess about 20-30 but definitely on the port side only.

3. Landing drill already posted after much difficulty. Take off drill kept loading instead.

Will answer re tail stall later
