Cees,

I too visted the archive department a year ago and found them pretty helpful. The guy had a beard but like you I can't remember the name.

Interesting that you mention Lancaster drawings on Microfilm. I have the complete set of engineering drawings for the Lancaster and was looking for another source to cross reference with some of the poorer quality drawings.

However, the guy said that they had no Lancaster drawings but was quite happy to furnish me with production manuals, jig layouts etc.

I wonder if this is a recent aquisition for the RAF museum...possibly a copy of the film held by the BBMF?

I do remember it was bloody expensive printing that material out!!


Regards,


Dave
