Need a little help please

From the experience of others all I can say is that if the information was available then it would have been included in the book. Someone told me that lots of information just isn’t around anymore, that lots of documentation was declared valueless and disposed of, maybe in the 1960s; what new info comes to light these days is mainly from veterans and the estates of late veterans.

Do you have the serial number? I believe Ray Sturtivant and Mick Burrows raided the archives for Air Britains Fleet Air Arm Aircraft 1939-1945, and since quite a lot of the aircraft have no final fate attached it might make it difficult for you.

Hi Flood,

Yes I have the serial # as a matter of fact I got it out of Rays book we where have a heck of a time finding out which bird it was, The problem is in Rays book all it list is the accident and nothing else .

I know from past experiance that the Squadron Logs and Aircraft data logs give final disp. we have a general idea where the wreck is but I would like to get the accident report and aircraft cardfor referance. For the recordits in fresh water here in Maine and is in about 50 feet of water a rather easy haul if we decide to go after it. Right now we just want to find it and have a good look at it then see what the State will say about recovering it.

Cheers
