Re: Trying to find 249 Sqn Hurricane code.
Hello Ro,
Good news re "US-K" if the refs used for the code confirmation is correct then it may well be that the codes and a/c letter had not been changed by the 5th. Can this be checked out ? "Aces High , vol 1" has - 15 Aug 40 through to 24 Aug a/c "N". 2 Sept a/c "K". S/D in a/c "K" on the 5th Sept. 27 Sept 40 a/c "T" Another (?) "T" on 4 Feb 41. Followed thereafter by a/c serial numbers. "Aces High vol 2" has - 15 Aug 40 a/c P3055. 2 Sept "US-K" , V6625. 11 Sept P3579. 15 Sept V6693. 27 Sept V6729. 29 Oct V7538. So 15 Aug = "GN-N" = P3055. 2 Sept = "US-K" = V6625. 27 Sept = "GN-T" = V6729. Question is - would the ground team have had V6625 and re-coded her by the 5th to "GN-K" or perhaps time to just remove the "US" code? Alex |
