137 Squadron Whirlwind Codes - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

pfP7063 · #1 8th March 2008, 13:44

Hi

I'm hoping that some of you out there might be able to help me with my research into the following Whirlwinds.

P7058 SF-G
Can anyone confirm the squadron code for this machine?

P7063 SF-?
P7114 SF-?
Does anyone know the squadron codes for these machines please?

Did any of them have personalised markings of any kind?

I would also be very keen to obtain copies of any photos of these machines.

They were all on strength with 137 Sqn in early 1943. Courtesy of Bingham's book I know their fates but would like to know their id's.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you all in advance.

Paul

Hi Paul,
