Re: Glenn Martin 167 in French service 1939-1940
Thanks Alex
Against better judgement I have begun a compilation of all known facts I have regarding the French Martin 167F (aka Martin 167-A3). There are some quite good arrival lists, especially to Casablanca where most of them ended up. The unit in charge E.A.A. 301 kept records up until the armistice (last recorded receipt was No 218) At this stage does anyone know why aircraft No 2 - 13 were so late being accepted? EAA 301's all record them in May/June 1940. Also does anyone have any data for No 1? With regard to French s/n vs Martin's c/n. Can anyone confirm that all the aircraft were painted up in USA? At this stage I have assumed that they were and that the staff at Martin did the right thing and painted them up in c/n order! I will start with the RAF when I have finished this. Cheers Stig |
