INFORMATION PACK:
The Information Pack supplied as a FREE BONUS with each manual is between 2 and 10 A4 pages in length. All the details in the pack (articles, drawings, cutaways, colour and b&w photographs) are reproduced from my extensive library of original source material from the period when the manual was in daily use by the aircrew. I have every copy of 'The Aeroplane' & 'Flight' weekly newspapers from the war years together with an almost complete collection of the 'RAF Flying Review' and 'Air Pictorial' and literally thousands of copies of leading aeronautical magazines such as 'Wingspan', 'Flypast', 'Aircraft Illustrated', 'Wings', 'ATC and Air Reserve Gazette', 'The Spotter', 'Air Extra', Air International' and much more. I scour these publications for information relevant to each manual, edit it where necessary and then print it out. If the pack consists of 2 pages, then I have not been able to find very much information on the aircraft in question. Typically, the pack is between 4 & 6 pages.
