Hi guys i am doing a lot of research into the two squads we had in the RFC during WW1.
I know that 19 flew the BE 12, Spad VII and XIII and the Dolphin.
And 92 flew the SE5a .
I also have a list of aces and pictures.
What i do need is any aircraft photos of these two squadrons that anyone may have, i dont think any other of our squadrons served during WW1.
Thanks for your help, usual E-Mail address.
Are scans OK mate?
I’'ll see what I can dig out…
Anything mate cheers:)
From Derek Palmer’s ‘Fighter Squadron’ The history of No 19 Fighter Squadron from its birth in 1915 until the present day.
Scans and excerpts from his book are ok to post but only for use within the EAF Derek asks, not for publication.
These are the best most relevant photos and are not-so-good quality in the original either sorry mate. It’s all in the text though
Ming
Thanks Ming ive saved them to my pc
Have to be tomoorow for those pics I promised Ace, suck at home today with stinking cold/flu so no access to a scanner…
Cheers mate cant wait. Thanks brigs for those links aswell:)
Ace, have you got a e-mail address you can PM me so I can ping you these pics? They’re rather large…
Didn’t do so well on 19 (think Mings source is the best there is on those)/92 Sqn pics but I’ve got some nice Dolphin ones you might like - including an Old Rheinbeck example in 19 colours.
I’ll keep looking and if I find anything else in the run-up to the Knights WW1 sim release I’ll forward them on…
