Lancaster Engine Numbers
Is there something I have missed?
I just need somebody to tell me that there is (or isn't!) a reference source that ties specific RR Merlin engine numbers to specific airframes - even at just the build/delivery stage. In the two cases I am looking at the AM78 records no engine numbers. However, a published source quotes a specific recovered engine number as being matched to a specific airframe. I want to be sure that this is fanciful thinking before it is dismissed as such and discounted. Is there a reference source that matches Lancaster engine numbers (at build or delivery to RAF) to airframe numbers that I don't know about?? That is, aside from the AM78 forms which are not helpful, anyway? Clarification of this point will greatly assist a family in researching the loss of close kin. |
