Adrian,

have you used the PRO's on-line search facility for the Air 1 files? It is cumbersome but does produce hits when you get the question right.

Breguet -

I have a copy the 40 Sq. SRB from April - Nov 1918 and combat reports for the period 1916-1918. I do not know if the latter is a complete set or not. If you'd like a copy of either or both, send me your snail mail address at ONEALM@DNB.COM.

Cheers,
Mike
