Sidetracking...it's a Mk.V or Mk.VI which was the Canadian improvement over the imported tube and fabric British ones. My favorite Anson story is when Britain shipped a batch of them to Canada as trainers for the BCATP. The RAF mechanics took them apart for shipping and to save time and maybe effort they didn't include the nuts and bolts. It would be easy to get them locally in Canada was their thinking. Well except that North American and British threads are not compatible.
