Re: Hungarian Lampich NL.XXII

Hello Stig,

Thanks for the reply and the corrections! Certainly, the fact that the site I linked to did not pick up on the fact that HA-VAG was a NL.XXI may speak against the accuracy of the information there and hence whether either machine was used by the MKHL.

However, I believe I would be corrrect in stating that not all aircraft in the I.801 block have as yet been identified. George Punka in Squadron Signals Hungarian Air Force lists this block as 29 enlisted sports aircraft. Among them would be I.814 a Kl.31 and I.829 a Gerle 14. Therefore it may be possible that the two Lampichs are contained in this block, if indeed they were ever used by the MKHL.

Finally, it is possible that there may have been re-use of codes as I have duplicate codes for numbers I.143 and I.144. I have seen I.143 reported as both a DH.60 and a Caudron C.600 and I.144 as both a Polikarpov U-2 and a Bu.131.

Thanks again,

Regards,

Clint
