Hanno,

This is definately a interesting subject to dive into a little more, as I think there is a discrepancy between the actual regulations and the reality. Your suggestion of the C8A Manual would be a nice start.

I think the "C" prefix only works one way....if a vehicle has a "C" you can be sure it's a Canadian contract or Canadian owned vehicle (As Clive wrote in Drive to Victory). But, if it doesn't have the "C" you can't be sure if it's a Canadian or British contract (or owned) vehicle.
