Hi Graeme

Thanks you so much for the infomation, the reason I am researching is that I have recently bought a RFC propellor boss. It has an inscription on it inscribed on a silver plaque. It reads " Capt WHC Mansfield DSO, Royal Flying Corps, The night of 19th January 1915, Sevenoaks" The boss has reference marks on it: "Series S 2 VC24X5 " and on the reverse side: "M No 862B DIA 8.57". It would seem that it was from the incident that you described.
Once again, thank you very much - Kliff
