At the start of the war the RNZAF had 91 officers, 665 airmen in the Regular Force and 79 officers and 325 airmen in the Territorials. There were 102 aircraft, mostly second-hand Baffins and Gordons, the only new aircraft were five Oxfords and nine Vildebeests.
My question is how many of these aircraft were in operational squadrons as opposed to training units?

Thanks,

Neil
