Re: Gloster Gauntlet K4081
Hello,
Just wondering if the "345" number is from the British Manufacturer ? The Other aircraft have the numbers "86" to "102". Of the full total of 18 aircraft - 5 were involved in fatal accidents pre WW2. They were - J-26 - 90 - (27/4/37). J-35 - 99 - (12/2/38). J-27 - 91 - (6/7/38). J-33 - 97 - (19/3/39) some give 29/3/39 ? J-31 - 95 - (8/8/39). The above are noted as being "Discarded " J-25 - 89 ; J-28- 92; J-29 - 93; J-30 - 94; J-32-96; J-38 - 102 these six are noted as damaged by enemy aircraft on 9/4/40, repaired, but written off destroyed during air attack. Seven are noted as "to Germany 29/8/1943 ", they were - J- 21-345; J-22-86; J-23-87; J-24-88; J-34-98; J-36-100; J-37-101. Is it possible that these seven were delivered to Finland as spair parts ?
