1919 British Register

At the risk of stating the obvious, have you made enquiries of the CAA and/or of the National Archives?

Not yet. I was hoping that someone might have trodden that path before me. It might be a bit of a challenge from the Antipodes.

Cheers

Thanks to everyone who has responded.

by way of clarification do you mean the K-### register (1 May – 22 July) and/or the G-E### register (22 July onward)?

I will be happy to see an example of either.

The record cards for the early G-EA## registrations are available on the web and these are stamped as follows:

“THIS ENTRY COPIED on 1st JANUARY, 1939, From FORMER REGISTER”.

This would appear to mark a transition from a ledger to a card system. What I need is an example of a page from the original ledger. I don’t need a list of registrations as these are readily available. What I need is the layout and composition of the original registration ledger.

This may be what you are looking for:

Alan.

If you go to the CAA’s GINFO site and search for an aircraft from that date (for example G-EAAA) there is a link to scan of the relevant page(s) from the register like this : G-EAAA.pdf
However, having looked at it more carefully, it is a 1939 entry copy of the entry from the original so probably is not what you want.

Whilst regrettably I cannot assist you, by way of clarification do you mean the K-### register (1 May – 22 July) and/or the G-E### register (22 July onward)?
