WW2 RAF aircraft – any ideas on type ?

Hi
straying only slightly off topic….
but in the video ‘ we attack ‘ there is a hurricane having it’s rudder removed, about 1 min into the film, can anyone read the serial.
It is of a style that I personally have not seen before, standard size letter Z , but very small numbers, anyone have any info ?

sorry but for some reason I now can’t capture frames on my computer:o

These new videos are to me a gold mine of info, especially on markings that are non standard .:D

cheers

Hi All,
Thanks for the replies.
and my apologies……..:o
I didn’t realise it was already being discussed on the board.

The RAF At War-The Unseen Films

These are awesome, I have seen some one has footage of OADU including a 24Sq hudson ZK-E, 276Sq lysander, B-24, etc, at Portreath,
Another film has sunderlands at mountbatten.
And one film has footage of a blenheim, which went missing shortly afterwards, interestingly the aircraft code letter is visible, but the letter is not in bomber command losses.
But I haven’t found any whirlwinds yet….:(
cheers

By coincidence I was recently lent the DVD that included the title Bits of Our Aircraft Are Missing and featuring the mythical Marlborough aircraft.
The producers certainly enjoyed a bit of tongue in cheek,with a nod to the airframe that formed the basis of the mangled Marlborough mock up since Blenheim Palace is the ancestral home of the Dukes of Marlborough.

Sort of discussed before:

aaah, this one

It’s a bizarrely retouched Bristol Blenheim, from this advertisement here,(28 seconds in), brought to our attention by MarkTea earlier in the week, here:

Next!

The closest I can get (British) is the Gloster F.9/37 which suffered a landing accident and had to be rebuilt.

looks like a badly photoshopped Blenheim to me…

what was the film?

or a captured Do-17 like this one

Maybe a Potez 63?
