Re: Beaufighter Dataplates

From memory, and as with quite a few British aircraft, I seem to think it is located somewhere near the fuel cocks. However, depending upon conditions/state of preservation you will find that most removable panels (cowlings etc) on a Beau will have the serial number stencilled on the inside in black paint in letters about 3/4inch high on the light green interior paint. If you can retrieve any of these panels it might be easier than looking inside the wreck itself.
