Re: log verification Leuchars

log verification Leuchars

After discovering a few bloopers in records I have for Leuchars in the Phantom/Tornado era,I wondered if there was a database I could look at to check the lot.If I could get a disc copy of BARGE would that cover some of it?

Thanks for any help,
