Hello Bill and Andy

I did see the column on the right. However, the 1 year only applied to Signals and Mechanical Transport Vehicles.

However, the square bracket note underneath was a reminder to those in charge of records at RAF Units that the items listed within the square brackets were to be preserved.

Some of the other items mentioned such as Station ORBs and Aircraft Cards are still held.

According to my 1935 (amended to 1938) King's Regs of the RAF and the amendment pasted in under "Flying Regulations" when the airframe or engine was finally written off charge, the Log Book will then be forwarded to the Air Ministry Archives Section, Stores Depot, Kidbrooke.
