P-47 plate starter engine - Info - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

Hi in a crash site of a P-47 I found a plate of the "starter aircraft engine" of the "JAHCO" with the following readable codes:
- model no: JH5P
- serial no: AC42-6366

From this last code is it possible to trace the serial of the engine and therefore the serial number of the P-47?

Thank you all

No you cannot. The s/n of the starter has nothing to do with the engine or the aircraft. It's just a part that can be changed like in a car.
