Thumbs up AAEE Test Pilots

I am looking for the RAF Test Pilots who were involved with the testing of the various Marks of the Victor at Boscombe Down and Farnborough over the period 1954-1980. Please can you help I am interested in the types of test fligts undertaken and if possible eventually the number of flights for each version

Many Thanks

Tanker 512

This data will be added to the second volume of my future indepth book on this aircraft

for a start try the book 'The Cold War Years - Flight testing at Boscombe Down 1945 - 1975 by Tim Mason. ISBN 1-902109-11-2
Failing that try the folk at the Information Warehouse, QinetiQ, MoD Boscombe Down, Salisbury Wilts. SP4 0JF. Who are custodians of all the A&AEE reports.
