Re: Photos Japanese Aircraft

Outside my comfort zone here Clint, but didn't the Yokosuka based F.5s have a distinct Y on their fins?

I have a shot of another F.5 showing 'Y8' and stated also to be from Yokosuka.

Cheers
Stig

Re: Photos Japanese Aircraft

Hi Stig,


Outside my comfort zone too. I've seen the Yokosuka Ku F.5s marked with the Y too. Having said this the Yo character shown on the tail of these machines associated with the Yokosuka Ku came in 26.07.21 ,whereas the Y was used from 21.06.1916 until that date,though according to Cea,the origin of this info, trainers of the Yokosuka Ku used an R rather than the Y for the earlier period.


Regards,


Clint

Re: Photos Japanese Aircraft

OK Clint

No idea who this 'Cea' is or what his info is, but since appx 50 F.5 were used by the Japanese,
most of them post 26.7.21 I am surprised that there are so many photos of 'Y' coded F.5 and
so few 'Yo' ones.
Should be the other way round....

Is there a list somewhere for Navy aircraft markings up to 1940 or so?
I think I am pretty well covered for the WW 2 period (think mind you....)

Cheers
Stig

Re: Photos Japanese Aircraft

Agreed Stig.1921 cannot be correct.My problem is that I have no more information on interwar JNAF aircraft and their codes than you do.However,the same work Eduardo Cea Aircraft of the Imperial Japanese Navy Land-based Aviation 1929-45 (I)(?) has a colour illustration of a 1MT1 captioned as 1927. So clearly something is amiss.


Regards,


Clint
