Re: Captured RAF aircraft, ebay auction
Re Stig's picture. The "4" looks to me to be oddly a hard looking number between other soft looking numbers, so my opinion is that this picture has been doctored to make it look like it is N6143, I repeat, it is only my opinion. No offence implied Stig, perhaps you've been sold a pup?
Then again it could be a photo taken post WW2 at a Navy a/c dump, but the number"4" still seems odd to me. Alex[/quote] Good Lord no Alex No offence taken of course. We're in the same boat here, and your suggestion is interesting. As mentioned I am away from my library and every one who has followed me also knows I am a bit, should we say, handicapped when it comes to Mr Google, so I cannot check anything really. I won't say aloud what I feel against people who doctor photos, but it is not very nice, rest assured about that.... Kaiyan Yes I have the same photo as you show, but I am pretty certain it is actually N6153 and not N5153. Well Bertrand You may after all come out on top here. Cheers Stig |

Hello Stig,
Re your last post. The responce to Kaiyan'ssuggestion about N5153. In fairness I think that it may have been a typo. N5153 was an Anson. Alex |

Re: Captured RAF aircraft, ebay auction
Hi,
I have any knowledges about the Fleet Air Arm aircraft and I do not know how were these codes. What we can see on that photo of this Blenheim is the base of the two codes letters and I guess an R and a T or K and I... What did the Blenheims of FAA had ? TIA Bertrand |
