Flight test reports

[Bird Strike :]

Could anyone point me in the right direction?! I'm searching for a
copy of the flight test reports for the Westland Lysander P10 (1942)
If it helps I believe the test pilot was one Harald Penrose. The local
library has been unable to help and nothing has come up on the
Internet. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I got a bunch of hits on Google for Harald Penrose.

A lot of flight test reports are in the Natl Air & Space Museum in
Washington. Perhaps the Imperial War Museum would be the UK
equivalent? Failing that, the Public Records Office in Kew is easy to
use and much more comprehensive than American archives. I believe it's
now searchable online.
