ARR PZL 37 Los Use

[James A Pratt III]

I am looking for a little more info on the use of the ex-Polish Air Force PZL 37s by the ARR .

I know about the planes 1941 operations from the Barbarossa to Odessa books
some more info of the S/Ns of the planes used and lost would be nice.

any one know about its operations during the April- May 1944 period by Esc 76 9 aircraft. Any info on the planes S/Ns? any losses?

Also 5 where destroyed on the ground by the Luftwaffe after Rumania changed sides any info like the German unit(s) involved and the S/Ns of the planes destroyed.

I understand 1/3rd of the ones used by the ARR were written off in accidents.

Any post September 1944 use.

Thanks in advance.

2.09 PZL.37 Los No. 221 Strafed Turda a/f

Above listed a/c were already assigned to a training school and iirc only 1 was operational, I don't have the logbook of the previous bomb flotilla where they were part of but i doubt they saw any action in 1944.
