Re: Missing Southern Rhodesia Air Force serials SR14-SR21?
From aeroflight:
SRAF Pre-WW2 Aircraft assigned to the Southern Rhodesia Air Unit (and later Southern Rhodesia Air Force) were given a single digit serial number with the prefix SR. Some aircraft wore their SR serials in addition to their RAF serials, e.g. Hart K3877/SR3. When the SRAF was absorbed into the RAF, the SR serial system was discontinued. Aircraft with Nos. 237, 44 and 266 Squadrons carried RAF serials. SRAF 1947-1954 In the initial period after the re-establishment of a Southern Rhodesia Air Force, the SR serial system was continued from where it left off. As new aircraft were received, additional serial numbers were allocated in sequence. When the Vampires were delivered, a jump was made to a new serial block starting at SR100. The sequence ended at SR 139, a Percival Provost.
