Hi guys,

I just had a look on my documents, i don't have the name of the unity concerned. Sorry.
And the final identification of the aircraft, i must agree with Stig, it is complicate !
Only because German archives use the two last numbers of the c/n to identify them, instead of the s/n, because they also captured Hawks from Norway.
I found three H-75 A4s (with Wright Cyclone engine) destroyed or damaged in accidents with the Lft : n°16, 17 and 19 (c/ns 13821, 13822 and 13824). But they also could have been n°21, 22 and 24, according to the original document.
For French archives, they all could match, they were all from the batch captured by the Germans.
But according to Finnish ones (they mention complete c/ns and s/ns of the engines, that permited me to confirm the s/ns of the aircrafts), n°16, 17 and 19 were not sold to Finnish Air Force by the Germans in 1941, when n°22 and 24 were.
Just hope my explanations are clear,

Friendly,

Lionel Persyn
