RAF lightning v whirlwind comparison trials

Hi All,
Anyone know if any comparison trials were carried out between whirlwinds and any of the RAF Mk I lightnings, (AE978, AE 979, AF105, AF106 & AF108 ) ?

I have seen a photo of comparison trials of a whirlwind, F-4 (or maybe F-5) lightning and a mosquito in late '42.

And therefore wondered if something similar happened, in early 42, with the RAF lightnings.

Any pointers to NA/PRO files welcome.
Cheers
Jerry
