Re: Looking for fuselage code of Hellcat Mk.II (JW892)

As far as I know, code assignments were in blocks by squadron. They would bear no relationship to the serial sequence, if that's what you mean.

Earlier in the war it was normal for squadrons to use only their own aircraft, except when hard pressed, but I think that things became looser later on.
