I seemed to have breezed through this apart from three.
26a I have +e+t+s+
27D I have +b+i+a+e+
41A I have t+i+l
Also is 25a Station?
Any assistance would be appreciated.

@Dutchy,
Thanks all for your assistance. I did have request" but it didn't fit in with 24d
which begs the question now to the answer of 24d. I have +u+t+d.Help with this one would be appreciated.Also with trial I must have a mental block. Apart from a careless anagram I can't see how it fits with the clues.Obviously I'm missing something. Puzzled John

@puzzledjohn,
What is the clue?
Trial is a hearing - think court- and a pilot is also a trial - tv shows
