I got his original book as well as the pdf collections. Usually he doesn't have notation for everything under the sun. I don't think I've ever see the flute finger tabs before. 

A lot of the tin whistle music uses D E D G.... This one has a bold font for the upper register. Some people use lower case.  C is ambiguous since you can either finger C or C# depending on if you're in D or G. Left to the user to figure out if a key isn't given.

I've gotten fairly adept at going from the finger tab to the guitar or banjo.  The tabs almost work for the Boehm flute but you have to remember it's a F#.
