Default LP2 vs LP2A

Ron, your statement agrees with an interview I did recently with Mike Cecil on the subject. As you possibly know Mike wrote a book about Australian carriers, and according to him the keyed vs splined pinion was the key difference between the two types. That also explains why numbers don't necessarily tally as in a cut off between the two types as stock was used up.
