Re: Iranian Hawker Hurricanes

Hello,
Well I have loked in the Air Britain RAF Serial books and have found the following.
Z4144 = no serial this number
BA131 = no serial number, up to BA118 then from BA133 were all Blenheims
BM624 = This is a Spitfire serial number
BM664 = Think this may have been an Oxford
DW932 =This was a Beaufort serial number
BN371 = This a/c was sold to Turkey Sept 43
Z4944 = Crash landed Shuztar, 24/3/43
Z4958 = 208 Sqn (from 74 ?) Force landed 5/7/42 could have been repaired then to 74.
BE226 = 134 Sqn SOC 31/3/45
BE336 = 213 Sqn SOC 4/10/45
BE698 = 74 Sqn Crashed Mehrabad 30/1/43
BG904 = 74 Sqn SOC1/9/43
BH283 = ME SOC 27/10/44
BM968 = 417/74/67
BP284 = 74/74otu, SOC/DBR accident 10/5/44
BP342 = 451/213 , Damaged by 109's C/L 1/9/42
BP664 = 74 Sqn 25m N of LG106 8/6/43
BP708 = 74 Sqn SOC 27/10/44
BW932 = 74 Sqn SOC 27/10/44
DG624 ex V6950 = ME SOC 31/3/45
HL564 = 208 Sqn SOC 13/9/45
HV660 = 74 Sqn SOC 29/3/45
HW294 = 241/3SAAF, in sea 40mWSW Benghazi 11/7/43

The new BA-BZ book may have greater details on those in that range than the older one.I note too that three (possibly four) were SOC on the same date.
Is it possible that BA119 to BA132 were Hurricanes ? Then again could it have been BE131, 33 Sqn then 335 Sqn SOC 27/10/44 ?

Alex
