Thumbs up Re: French H-75A-4 aircraft

Hi Oliver,

I wondered about the BB924 , Have both books so yes in one not in other.

HK823 is noted as 71 OTU (so i think Egypt) collided with Tomahawk AN317 and crashed 13.12.41.

So that might not be one from the UK. Other types were forwarded to the Middle East from here so it just might be the one.

The number "10" is that 12807 - X809 or 13815 ?
I think that some that were Indian built were not given RAF serials but did see RAF or IAF service while others (only a few) were passed on to China.

Great photographs Steven has shown to us here. Thank you Steven

And Thank you Oliver for your help.

I wish that I could get to the PRO as easy as you guy's seem to be able to do all the time, there are lots of things that I would like to look into but apart from getting there there is the cost of the Hotel stay and PRO charges too. Ah well I dream on. I did at one time want to look at the POW's lists from Italy but the cost was over £100, that is without the postage to me. So I forgot that search.

Good night,
Alex
