You can all have a go at these:

All quite easy....

Until you get to #9! (Lefty?)

Please post your answers, gentlemen.
This was a rather nice civil version of the Victor (HP-80) which never got much beyond the Boy's Book:

Sorry it's too wide for my little scanner, but you get the idea.
I am used to airliners of the time having a Ladies' powder Room and a Gentlemen's Dressing Room (a sort of unisex cupboard called Lavatory on a modern tube), but the HP-97 has Lower Deck Smoke Lounge at F and Library Lounge at G above. That's my sort of an aeroplane!
If anybody would also like to have a shot at the date of the book, all suggestions will be considered...
