I always thought AGS meant Aircraft General Spares

You can also add to the list: HDA = High Duty Alloy

This is sometimes found stamped on aircraft parts. We have a window frame of Whitley N1521 with these letters stamped in it. It took me some time to find out what it actually meant. ;)

Hi all.
Does anyone know what RAF Stores series 65A refers to?
Thanks.

It's okay! I found it on the other thread where Dave had cleverly included the scan of AP.1086.
65A is Claudel Hobson.

Hi All,

I am after the section 6B Aircraft Navigation Equipment, Accessories and Spares

I am happy to pay for a copy of this section of AP1086.
