The following list of primarily technical contents of the NZ Jowett Club magazine Flat Four was compiled by Bob Culver for his own purposes. All of his contributions are recorded, including trivial. Non tech inclusions do not follow very consistent pattern.
Layout is not ideal. It arises from conversion from Brother WP.
The list may prove useful to others. Simply reading it through will draw attention to key points. Branches and some members hold collections of old Flat Fours. (Bob Culver's contributions from FF 140 are held on storage and with some re formatting could be made available)
A searchable version is available. Otherwise users will just have to trawl through.
Note that FFs 1 to 29 were progressively reviewed commencing FF 146. Adequate information may be available from the review.
Unless there is some indication otherwise, topics and references generally apply to Javelins.
