  1. From B-24 Liberator by Allan G Blue page 210

    Theatre transfers to RAF in ETO: 41-28868, 41-29568, 42-50744, 42-51226, 42-51350, 42-51529, 42-52483, 42-52572, 42-52591, 42-52620, 42-52681, 42-52712,  42-52731, 42-52766, 42-52771, 42-94771, 42-94797, 42-94813, 42-94847, 42-94856, 42-94891, 44-10421 returned US control April 1945, 44-10533, 44-10574, 44-10594, 44-10597, 44-10611, 44-40380, 44-40457.  Total 30.  42-52753 is not mentioned.

     

    Theatre transfers to RAF in MTO: 41-11906, 41-28722, 41-29278, 42-52205, 42-64341, 42-78080, 42-78096, 42-78110, 42-78113, 42-78129, 42-78143, 42-78144, 42-78153, total 13.  All except 41-11906 and 42-78129 returned to US control after VE day

  2. From B-24 Liberator by Allan G Blue
    Page 18/19 "The Liberator II featured a fuselage stretch ahead of the flight deck and a deepened rear fuselage to provide adequate room for placing a power turret aft of the tail section.  The overall fuselage length was thus increased from 63 feet 9 inches to 66 feet 4 inches.  The aft section change also permitted a better fairing between the fuselage and horizontal stabliser." The tail turret was to be a 4 gun Boulton Paul E.Mark II type.

     

    The drawings by Norman Ottaway on page 190 have the Liberator I and II, the distance from where the aft part of the wing joins the fuselage and the tail is 5 to 10% more in the I than the II, the aft under fuselage line in the I goes to vertical quicker than that of the II.  The drawings indicate there was tail movement forward plus a small extension of the aft fuselage.  The distance between the cockpit and nose glazing in the mark I is around a third less in the mark II.

  3. The only B-24H received by the RAF "from the factory" was BZ970, Taken on Charge 16 February 1944, Air Britain and Air Arsenal North America says B-24H-1 42-64432 became BZ970 (Its USAAF card says accepted 13 August 1943, earmarked for Britain October, sent for modification, to ATC Dorval for ferrying 5 February 1944).  The other B-24H were theatre transfers, the only official document I have is an ADO-478 report which says,

     

    B-24H transferred in November 1944. 41-29568 (contract AC-18723 Fort Worth), 41-28868 (AC-18722 Douglas)

    1 from contract AC-26992 Fort Worth, serial not given, not considered a transfer (became BZ970)

    16 from contract AC-21216 Ford, serials not given, not considered transfers.

     

    The British Air Commission and Lend Lease says 18 transfers, all in Britain, 1 each from AC-18722 and 18733 and 16 from AC-21616, it gives the US serials but not the RAF ones.  Air Arsenal North America agrees with this while saying they were for 223 Radio Countermeasures squadron in Bomber Command (reformed in August 1944) and gives the tie ups, presented here in RAF order

  4. Trying to stay out of this for the moment.

     

    Sea I, 50 built in Canada BW855 to BW854, the RAF says 378 conversions, the list has 375 serials

     

    Sea II, 60 aircraft NF668 to NF703, NF716 to NF739 Sea IIC built by Hawker, 47 more conversions found, all except BD771, which was left on HMS Indomitable after a ferry run, built by Canadian Car and Foundry.  As of end June 1944 the RAF says 31 IIB, 29 IIC, 20 IIBB, and 47 IICB transferred to the Admiralty.  In the IIBB and IICB, the final letter stands for bomber = factory fitted bomb racks, also known at different times by the RAF (in 1941 and early 1942) then the MAP (early to 1942 to October) as the IIE, yes just as the RAF stopped using the designation on some records the MAP started using it.  Declared a non official designation.  NOT an early mark IV.

     

    Additional text: I need to stop doing quick replies, IIE = 230 IIB and 40 IIC (in that order) that left the factory with bomb racks fitted, September 1941 to October 1942, except as noted above the RAF used the IIE, stopped, then MAP started, the serials of the 270 aircraft are known.  The RAF decided to call them IIBB and IICB, with another 66 IIB converted to IIBB (serials again known, hopefully to appear on the web site in a list) and thousands of IIC to IICB.  As far as the RAF is concerned only 40 IIC left the factory with bomb racks fitted.

  5. 14 hours ago, EwenS said:

     

    The first 50 Lancaster B.VII received the usual FN50 upper turret as B.VII (Interim). The remaining 180 received the Martin turret with 0.5" guns.

     

    42 a/c NX548 to NX589 I Called mark VII Interim in some places, listed as mark I on their Form 78, Contract Cards and Serial Registers.
    8 a/c NX603 to NX610 I Called mark VII Interim in some places, listed as mark I on their Form 78, Contract Cards and Serial Registers.
    38 a/c NX611 to NX648 VII
    43 a/c NX661 to NX703 VII
    44 a/c NX715 to NX758 VII
    25 a/c NX770 to NX794 VII
    Final 30 mark VII were RT670 to RT699, total VII production 180.

     

    The mark I listed above had Merlin 22, NX611 is reported as having Merlin 22, NX613 onwards Merlin 24.  The first 50 VII fitted with temperate engines, then Merlin 24 tropical.  The fundamental question is what changed between the NN798 to NN816 block of Austin built Lancaster I to the NX548 to NX589 block to justify calling any of the NX serial mark VII Interim.  Some of the NN serials had Merlin 24, but all of the NX serial mark I Merlin 22.

     

    Also of course given the mid upper turret change during the Lancaster X production, why the earlier ones were not called mark X Interim, remembering the 300 aircraft KB700 to 999 were built before the 130 aircraft FM100 to 299. The Form 78, Contract Cards and Serial Registers call all Canadian production mark X.  As far as I am aware Martin shipped turrets to Canada for Lancasters, rather than shipping them to Britain for fitting there, easier and more convenient to fly the turrets along with the aircraft.  KB855 Taken on Charge Date is 9 November 1944.

  6. Final 240 Gloster Gladiators ordered by the RAF 20 a/c N5575 to N5594, 30 a/c N5620 to N5649, 50 a/c N5680 to N5729, 40 a/c N5750 to N5789, 50 a/c N5810 to N5859, 50 a/c N5875 to N5924

     

    Gladiator II Exports taken from RAF order, Air 8/362 notes no aircraft exports in September 1939 and Gladiator exports October to December 1939 are put at 15 Portugal, 18 Egypt and 6 Norway.
    15 Portugal N5835 to 49
    18 Egypt, N5875 to 5892 called L9030 to 47 on the contract cards, their Egyptian serials
    6 Norway N5919 to N5924

     

    The RAF serials around the Portugal order were built in late July 1939, no gap in delivery dates.  Showing the Portugal order was built either earlier or later.  There is a gap in RAF delivery dates with the serials up to N5898 delivered in mid to late September, then N5899 to N5902 in mid October then N5903 onward from mid January 1940.

     

    The Egyptian order have dates of August and September 1939, in line with the RAF serials

     

    Norway serials 427, 433, 435 delivered 24 Oct 39, 429 and 431 on 27 Oct 39, 425 on 26 Oct 1939, though they were the last RAF serials they were built 7 to 8 months before production stopped.

     

    The production reports miss 7 exports, without them production is 39 from September 1939 to April 1940 inclusive.  The missing aircraft were probably built in September 1939.  Monthly Gladiator production June 1939 to April 1940 was 48, 39, 27, 12, 4, 7, 0, 7, 4, 2, 3, plus 7 more for export. Gloster produced its first Hurricanes in October 1939, production to April 1940 being 2, 13, 17, 34, 34, 56, 69.

  7. First the obvious, AN were the codes for 417 Squadron, had Spitfire Vb and Vc October 1942 to September 1943 and started flying Spitfires on operations in late November.  BR410 to 435 were PR.IV, BR459 to 499 mark Vc.

     

    601 squadron says it was BR363 that failed to return on 31 August 1942 Shores et. al, say BR636.  BR363 seems to have also been recorded instead of BR459 for a 25 July 1942 loss.


    Looking at the 601 Squadron records for July and August 1942 no indication BR470 was used for operations.  BR478 was.

     

    BR470 was with 417 squadron on 2 February 1943, like 601 squadron its record of events uses serial numbers.

     

    If you assume the photograph date is correct, removing all those lost in 1942 or not sent to the Middle East you are left with BR461, BR463, BR469, BR470*, BR472, BR473, BR474, BR476, BR483*, BR487, BR493, BR494, BR498, *= web site mention of 417 Squadron.

    ML839 Mark III Taken on RAF Charge 29-Oct-43, allocated to 10 Squadron RAAF 08-Dec-43, coded RB-A, for conversion to mark V (R-1830 Twin Wasp replacing Pegasus XVIII engines) but not officially on strength, mentioned on 02-Mar-44 with work underway when a delegation of Ministry of Aircraft Production, Coastal Command, Short Brothers and Pratt & Whitney representatives visit the squadron to discuss the project.


    16-Mar-44 Four engines and one propeller installed.  The propellers are from Albemarles with 9 inches clipped off the blades and are fully feathering. Conversion now has priority over operational commitments.  5552 Fitter 2E Sgt G F Beattie is in charge of the installation.

     

    04-May-44 First test flight of mark V, pilot Group Captain J Alexander OBE RAAF (Commanding Officer RAF Mount Batten) (The official mark V prototype ML765 was taken on charge by the RAF 31-Mar-44, counted as a mark III, though it has been reported it flew as a mark V in March.)


    01-Jul-44 Loaned to 10 Sqn for for local and training flights.
    12-Sep-44 First operational sortie, captained by F/Lt S T Chilcott
    12-Oct-44 Sank at moorings during gale.

    RCAF Cessna Crane, according to the RCAF,
    644 Mark I (Jacobs L-4MB) serials 1300, 4000, 7657 to 7836, 7843 to 8202, 8651 to 8750, 9000, 9500 (1300, 4000, 9000, 9500 built from parts).
    100 Mark IA (Jacobs L-4MB-1A) 8751 to 8850 but 8797 not delivered.
    82 Mark IA (Jacobs L-6MB) FJ200 to 239, FJ248 to 289.

    640 T-50 produced in US December 1940 to January 1942


    Mark IA were USAAF AT-17A, USAAF Engine designation Jacobs R-775-9 built January to July 1942, RAF serials FJ100 to 289 but FJ240 to 247 to USAAF/Pan American, FJ100 to 199 became RCAF 8751 to 8850, with FJ146/8797 crashed in the US.  The original British/Canadian order is reported as 550 aircraft, accepted as 190 AT-17A for Lend Lease, 60 AT-17C, 33 AT-17A and 267 UC-78C for USAAF.

  10. Brazil 68 P-47D.  The following format is ADT-15 Delivery Log page, month in 1944, number of aircraft the delivery report has, then the serials the delivery logs have for the month

     

    P174, April, 0 a/c, 42-26450 P-47D-25.

    P180, May, 37 a/c, 42-26752 and 3, 42-26755 to 773 P-47D-25, 42-26775 to 789 P-47D-27 (36 a/c serials)

    P180, June, 1 a/c, 42-26774 P-47D-27

    P76, July, 10 a/c, 44-19659 to 668, P-47D-28

    Sub total 48, but a slight disagreement between delivery logs and delivery report.  Also 44-19664 and 668 to USAAF later (March 1945?), there are probably others.

     

    P90, September 9 a/c, 44-20338, 339, 341 to 347 P-47D-30 (also 44-20293 in 1946?)

    P90, October 1 a/c 44-20340 P-47D-30

    P99, November 9 a/c, 44-20798 to 801, 803 to 807 P-47D-30

    P99, December 1 a/c, 44-20802 P-47D-30

    Sub Total 20

     

    P100 to 106, Also 44-20850 and 854 diverted to Brazil in December 1944, 44-21022 and 093 to Brazil April 1945, there are probably others. 

     

    All the above from Farmingdale, the following in 1945 from Evansville

     

    P40, June, 19 a/c, 45-49228, 231, 234 to 240, 243 to 247, 249, 251, 252, 256, 262, P-47D-40.  This batch is a form of compensation for the reported 17 remaining reserve aircraft in Italy being reassigned to the USAAF post war, and probably 2 other such transfers.  25 of the original allocation went with the unit to Brazil post war, the remainder of the 68 had been lost according to Air Arsenal North America.

     

    Mexico allocation of 58 P-47D, reported as 25 new lend lease and rest from USAAF theatre stocks.  Then another 25 post war.

     

    P138, February, ADT-16 (not 15), 25 a/c 44-33710, 711, 713 to 723, 725, 727 to 733, 735, 737, 738, 741 P-47D-30, all initially delivered for USAAF, then to Mexico then diverted to USAAF 7 December 1945.

     

    To compensate for the return of the above 25 aircraft, presumably shipped to the Philippines, Mexico received 25 P-47D-30 originally delivered to the USAAF in March (first two) and April 1945 (other 23), all marked diverted to Mexico 7 December 1945.  P147 to 152, ADT-16 (not 15), Serials 44-89945, 92, 90008, 049, 165, 170, 180, 183, 185, 190, 192, 194, 196, 198, 199, 202, 204, 205, 208 to 211, 214, 217, 226

     

    As I read it Brazil received 68 new P-47D during 1944 for Italian operations and probably only used that allocation, receiving an extra shipment in 1945 as replacements for aircraft transferred to the USAAF in Italy.  After 1945 additional P-47 were acquired.  Mexico received 25 new P-47D during the war but also used USAAF theatre stocks, all 25 P-47D survived and were transferred to the USAAF in the Philippines with Mexico receiving 25 P-47D from USAAF stocks as replacements.

  11. As I understand it the AFDU clipped a test Spitfire's wings on 2 October 1942, reporting the results on the 14th.  During October a mark XII was given clipped wings.  In early November Supermarine received an order for 20 sets of parts to allow 91 squadron to become clipped wing. As of 17 November a mark IX had been tried which prompted an order for another 19 sets of parts.

  12. V3540 Oxford II V3540 Built by De Havilland Hatfield. Taken on Charge 1 November 1940, delivered to 45 MU 8 November, Provisionally Struck off Charge 5 January 1941.

     

    From Air Publication 15965 8.: B—P.N, Pilot’s Notes:  The Oxford I is dual controlled and is equipped for navigation, wireless and bombing training. Provision is made for fitting a gun turret for gunnery training in the majority of aircraft. Later aircraft have no turret structure. The Oxford II is equipped for navigational and flying training only.

     

    Before the adoption of mark numbers early production Oxfords used the terms advanced and intermediate to differentiate designate a mark I and a mark II respectively. This was probably changed in 1939 as can be seen in the second order from De Havilland, built in early 1940, originally for fifty advanced and twenty five intermediate it was first changed to fifty mark I and twenty five mark II then seventy five mark II, or seventy five intermediate, which is the source for reports of a mark I/II intermediate version, a designation which does not exist in RAF or MAP documentation.  To further complicate matters the RAF and RNZAF consider the first one hundred and ninety one Oxfords (the first two orders) from Airspeed Portsmouth to be mark I regardless of whether they were advanced or intermediate while the contract cards indicate fifty eight were intermediate (mark II).

  13. Official production was 526 F.XIV October 1943 to March 1945 and 431 FR.XIV with 1 probably in October 1944 then January 1945 to February 1946, which does not quite align with the Taken on Charge dates.  There are some ambiguous, hard to read and no doubt some incorrectly entered ToC dates.  RM702, 757 to 759 assumed from MU dates and dates of serials beside them.

     

    It is possible MV364 was around earlier than below as the FR prototype. "E" from Spitfire website, no idea whether the switch from C to E armament was a clean change.

  14. 91 squadron switched to Spitfire mark IX ("b models") in August 1944, they stayed until April 1945, Spitfire F.21 started arriving in January 1945.

     

    If the squadron records have serial numbers for their XIVe it might pin down when the change happened.  The factory does not seem to have recorded what was a change in armament fitted, with no change to the wing structure.

  15. 73 Squadron was Middle East, Hurricanes until July 1943.  79 was in India from 1942 flying Hurricane IIc to July 1944.  Overseas aircraft rarely reported unit details back to London.  Ber beyond economic repair.  Hapmat meant for USSR via Southern Route.  Both aircraft letters and serial number are recorded in the 79 squadron Record of Events, along with pilots, for early 1944 anyway, LA114 was F, JS465 was D, LB880 was L.  Sort of readable online at the British National Archives.  Advanced search string: 79 squadron record.  AM283 and the JS serials were Canadian built, making them IIb when arriving in Britain.  HV664 a IId.

  16. Assuming you are talking about Tirpitz on 15 September 1944 and then Munster/Handorf Airfield on 23/24 September, the airfield strike was all HE apart from target indicators and mostly American 1,000 pound bombs.  No bomb bay door changes.  Most of the airfield strike reported bombing Munster.

  17. Given reports major Lancaster sub assemblies were mixed and matched in the overhaul system, what an aircraft started with might not be what it ended with.  Delivery dates for serials mentioned,

    DS689 - late June 1943
    DS704 - late August 1943
    DS771 - Late August 1943
    DS778 - Early September 1943
    DS842 - Mid December 1943
    DS848 - Mid October 1943

    Serials used
    35 a/c DS601 to DS635
    46 a/c DS647 to DS692
    38 a/c DS704 to DS741

    37 a/c LL617 to LL653
    39 a/c LL666 to LL704
    24 a/c LL716 to LL739

     

    Looking at the Contract Cards the trend is the later the serial the later the delivery date however there are regular groups like

    DS690 30 June
    DS691 2 July
    DS692 31 July
    Blackout block

  18. The Baugher List for 46738/46837 is very thin and quote BuNos! by Douglas E. Campbell.  I suspect the problem is the FM-2 allocations being confused with the FM-1.

     

    Bureau Number list, FM-1 and first FM-2 orders
    960 a/c BuNo 14992-15951 FM-1
    840 a/c BuNo 15952-16791 FM-2
    Total 1,800

    100 a/c BuNo 46738-46837 FM-1
    600 a/c BuNo 46838-47437 FM-2
    Total 700

     

    The USN lists under FM-1 additions of 100, 200 and 600, cancellations of 1,265 and 285.
    FM-2 order of 1,265 plus an addition of 285.  Then cancellations of 200 and 100.
    Get the impression there was a shuffle between the number of FM-1 and FM-2?

     

    Next order 2,850 FM-2

    600 a/c BuNo 55050-55649 FM-2
    400 a/c BuNo 56684-57083 FM-2
    1660 a/c BuNo 73499-75158 FM-2
    Total 2,660

    Next order for 1,423 FM-2 but only 677 of the final order built.

    677 a/c BuNo 86297-86973 FM-2 built with BuNo 86974-87719 Cancelled

     

    Result 1,150 FM-1, using 1,060 BuNo, plus 90 RN serials, leaving FM-2 (Ignoring the final order for 1,423 reduced to 677)  BuNo. 840+600+600+400+1660 = 4,100.  Orders 1,250+2,850 = 4,100

     

    And yes, the BuNo and order quantity do not align.  End of the order for 1,250 only 410 from the 46838-47437 allocation used, leaving 190 to add to the 2,660 further allocations, total 2,850.  The 90 is a clue, the 100 probably about a cancellation.

     

    Apart from the official production reports showing the FM-1 production, try totaling USN fighter production 1942 to 1945 and discover how saying 1,060 FM-1 leaves a gap of 90 aircraft to be accounted for.

     

    Where are the USN accident reports located?
