Default WW1 RAF Logbook entries?

Hi all

Something a bit different but maybe of interest to a few. I attach 4 images from a WW1 observer's logbook. He served with 9 Sqdn, flying in R E 8s (the "Harry Tate" I'm told).

My question is for some clever person to explain some of the abbreviations used.

I think that "CAP" is Combat Air Patrol as this was used in WW2 but what is "N F" or "M Q N F"?

I wondered about Night Flying but...

Any other suggestions welcome...

I've looked on that great site "airhistory" but can't find the answer.
