Dave,

Aren't people doing that kind of work supposed to grow a beard?

IIRC there were not many drawings for the Lanc, I think the ones available (at a price, but 21.000 drawings, I have seen them) on CD-Rom are the better option. I got my copies for GBP 1 for a A3 copy and GBP 2 for a A2 copy.

My experiences are that the RAFM's drawings for the Halifax (interior) were the ones the IWM (who hold all other drawings for the Halifax) have not. I have sent copies of some of these via 57Rescue to Canada and they had never seen them before, including one of the pilots seat.

Who knows how the drawings for many types are scattered around the globe with people needing them, not knowing about that.
