RAF Aircraft Serials

Hi All

I’ve purchased an old logbook which lists two serials, but does not state the aircraft type. Can you help?

K1910, J7743, on 10 Sqn 1931

Thanks

Ian

just because you have a bigger book than me 😉 . Mine was from a 1966 Ian Allan serials book where they had to leave out the latest serials of the time due to security reasons!
Anyway am bored as have loads of photos and can’t post them 😡 .

J7743 was a Handley Page Hyderbad, and apparently with 10Sqn between 21/2/31-10/31.
K1910 was a Handley Page Hinaidi, delivered to 10Sqn 27/2/31, and SOC 1/11/31.
Info from Air Britains RAF Aircraft J1-J9999 and The K File.
10Sqn was at Upper Heyford until 1/4/31, when it moved to Boscombe Down (from Air Britains Squadrons of the RAF and Commonwealth 1918-1988).

K1910 Handley-Page Hinaidi, the who batch of 17 used by 10sqn
J7743 handley-Page Hyderabad, J7745 became the Hinaidi prototype, so very similar types.
