Putting History right?

Or, at least, putting down the facts. This is a bit like grave robbing, but no harm?
There has been much if-ing & but-ing of late over a/c designations for 151 Wing in Russia. http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showthread.php?t=7289 is the start point. I know I've commented on it before, but not in the same context. Here it is my current comment -

1. Strange that Anson (81 Sqn) should fly off a 134 Sqn aircraft - GA25. This a/c is elsewhere connected with Furneaux (134 Sqn)?
2. Strange that there should be a GA25 & a GO25?
3. I flew GO25 & then settled into GO31. So far as I know, my number (31) was the only one over-painted on an old number. Which, I suspect/suggest, was 25? The over-painting is very obvious.

4. I never flew Z5122.

Hope that this may be of use to someone.
