Re: Blenheim crash Western Desert code "YH"

Hello,
Already did that.
Some may fit.
But it looks in the photo that the serial number has been deliberately distorted.
However the "numbers" marked on the rudder look to start with 76##.
The only 11 Sqdn a/c that I can find was Z7640, lost on 5th May '42.
Some others before that date might be -
13/02/41 - T2166 .
17/06/41 - V5946.
02/07/41 - Z5887.
28/11/41 - Z7703.
12/12/41 - Z7909.
27/12/41 - L9308.
01/01/42 - T2226.
19/02/42 - R3872.
I could find no info on the loss of Z7968 - 15/03/42 or the five(5) losses,R3911;V5992;Z7803;Z7896;Z9574 on the 9th April 42, or Z7506 on the 22/04/42.

Good hunting,
Alex
