JWM - sorry for the direct approach - didn't want the thread to wander - do you know if there are any ways to find out Sqadron Codes and serial numbers for other planes that Stanislaw Litak flew - I understand he might have flown Hurricanes & maybe spitfires? You seem knowledgeable on the topic.

Hi,
Here is his history - but I think you know it, though it is in Polish
https://www.polishairforce.pl/litak.html
It is said that he was flying Tiger Moth, Battle, likely Lysender - during training.s Before WW2 in Poland he had accident on PWS 26. In Squadron 316 prior to Mustang Mk III he flew Spitfires Mk V and IX.

is his photo on front of Sptfire Vb AR 428, J is visible so likely SZ-J. From other photos it is visible that they were Vb LF, but having serial I am sure that people can confirm it (or denied).Â
Here are (in Czech) next infos, he is on one photo among other pilots
