Just goes to show how difficult it is for us to be definitive on the facts!

We have JP137 down as a MKII Series 1, not a MK II Series 1A, and the second record card actually describing the fact that the rudders had not been modified to cure the stall problem. (copy attached)

Yet you say the JPXXX range were fitted with modified rudders, making them MK II series 1A aircraft ??

Back to the drawing board for us, I think!

Thanks for this new info!
