Thanks in advance

Hey Stig-

Thanks i have done that and trying to get all the information i can to do a little evaluating between all the resources then come up with an average with it.:D

I used to know a former SBD engineer. I am sure they souvineered various manuals.

New Zealand's RNZAF flew P-40, Avengers, Corsairs and Dauntless in the Pacific. There is a strong association of former Dauntless aviators whom you should track down.
