On the Job Training in WWII

Jagan (#9489),

Many thanks ! Will study this and comment later.
...that because the armament syllabus was undertaken at the "ATU Bairagarh" later known as No.1 Air Gunnery School, Bhopal...
Again - I never knew that - or even of the School's existence ! until now - shows how much you can learn on this Thread. In my defence, must point out that none of this started until long after we got the first Vengeances at the end of '42.

It was a case of: "here's your new aircraft, we know nothing about it, neither does anyone else, you're on your own now, see what you can do with it - and then write the "Pilot's Notes" for it".

We survived.

Danny.
