Finding Spartan

Aw shucks Danny, I'm not so clever really! It is just that I have been a reader of the American magazine "Flying" since 1970, and Spartan was a regular advertiser in that publication, so the word just leapt off the page to me. Forgive me for being picky but it was 3 BFTS, not 5 BFTS (in your last post) that we are referring to.

Spartan SofA - (no date but then there are 3 entries lower with an inserting arrow)
Albany - 8/6/41
Maxwell Fld - 6/8/41
3 BFTS Miami - 28/8/41

I wish I understood what Xercules means by

"with an inserting arrow"

Most Mysterious
