Graham, I noticed this comment from you in your referenced thread. I can't help you with any 488 RNZAF Squadron serials for ME-G aircraft, but 487 RNZAF Squadron (flying Mosquito Mk VI FB with Bomber Command, and involved in the Amiens Raid) had EG squadron codes. Aircraft M (i.e. M-EG, viewed from port side profile) had serial number SZ985.

Again references from both Chaz Bowyer/Mosq Sqn of the RAF and John Rawlings/Bomber Squadrons of the RAF. Unfortunately, no photos of that aircraft in either book.

Apologies to OP for slight thread drift.

Regards, ...geoff
