Are these errors in the Micrnauts air rules examples?

I seem to have found some errors in the examples in the air rules section of Micronauts. I'd like to confirm with others that these are errors and not simply a case of me not understanding the rules.

Page 35, bottom of first column: "The B5N2 Kate shown on the sample Aircraft Card can act as a Dive Bomber (DB) or Level Bomber (LB)." Shouldn't this be "Torpedo Bomber (TB)" instead of "Dive Bomber (DB)"?

Page 35, bottom of second column: "A flight of B5N2 Kates on a dive bombing mission..." Shouldn't this say "level bombing" or "torpedo bombing"?

Page 37, halfway down first column: "...the Kates move 6" to within 4 Kyds of the carrier... The Kates move another 3" (minimum airspeed) to set up for the dive bombing attack. Now the Kates are 3" from the carrier,..." Isn't the minimum speed for the Kates 2" and not 3"? Wouldn't moving 3" put them 1" from the carrier and not 3"?

Saxophone,

Yes these are errors in the play examples. Your understanding of the rules is correct.
Thanks for the heads up to these errors, we will get them cleaned up.

There is an errata sheet in the "FREE RULES" section of the GHQ website.

I know that. I checked them before posting. The errata made no mention of these errors.
