Re: eBay: Allied intrest
Liberator tail number "36", was this "Brewery Wagon", 41-24294. I believe
that she was repaired and was later to be used by the Rumanian Air Force along with 3 or 4 other B-24's ?

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
Thanks Ed

#2462_2 : The Spitfire coded "V" has a name "Melly Alweita (....) ale" and a possible serial which finished by "0" and readable when you put this photo in negative.

North Africa I think

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
You're welcome Bertrand.


The Liberator has the words "Justa Willo Boy" toward the nose. Not sure about the spelling of the first word.

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
The Spitfire "V", have sadly not been able to view it as a negative. However I put forward the following.
My thoughts are that this is a doctored version of "V ⊙ UZ", serial number R6770 of 306 Polish Squadron. Pilot became a POW, 22nd August 1942.
Two photo's of R6770 ( crash position very similar) can be viewed in the 306 Sqdn site in the Polish Squadron's Remembered website.

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
Post 2465 " I'm a mean Willo boy" confirms the B-24 is "Brewery Wagon".
Quotation is just behind the pilot side (left) window and below the top gun turret.

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
#2466 : fishtail type of exhausts are not the same and we have a Spit V and a Spit IX ; the wrecks on nose are not the same ; so two different losses
