I'll give you that one Ian ..... its not the one i had in mind , but the question wasn't that specific (my bad) . The Lysander did indeed fly for the first time on June 15 1936 , and so did the Vickers Wellington.

Steinhoff book is yours

[Splitpin]

Seems the flame is going out , so I'll add to the pot for the last question . I have a little "name plate" 7.5cm x 4cm , its a bit bent and battered .
But has "North American Aviation Inc. (Inglewood California) Model :Harvard 2 , contract # F-704 , Serial number AJ864 .

I was Hoping it may have egged legged some people along ... but really Cheers Marty , that really fit into some research I have doing regard to artwork- not different but to produce themes from the other side and really covering and building a history drawing as close as possible.

#3 Splitty is it the Arado AR 234?

[Splitpin]

Your welcome Ian .... not many pics in the book , but the text will give a real insight to what it was like.
Seems question number 3 was a bit of a flop .... maybe I'll keep it to just one next time.
