A relatively small number of
post
WW2 aircraft re-used serial numbers previously allocated. The
original
aircraft were long gone when this occurred, so there was no confusion
within the RCAF. To avoid my confusion, I have listed these
aircraft
separately. In addition, a number of DHC Otters destined for the
Tanzanian Air Force were briefly on the RCAF's books with their
Tanzanian serials, which duplicated serials previously used for
Bolingbrokes. |

The table below will connect you
to two types of listings of these
aircraft. The "Brief lists" present a minimum amount of
information
about as many aircraft as I can fit on a reasonably sized page.
Use these lists to
identify individual aircraft, or to quickly scan a large range of
serials. The "Detailed lists" contain all the information
currently in
my database, and are broken into many more pages to keep the data
manageable. |

Expeditor NOTES: 1. The RCAF's postwar purchase of Expeditor Mk. 3s (Beech Model D18S) totalled 280 aircraft, which were allocated serials 1426 to 1600, and 2278 to 2382. Most of these serials duplicated Second World War serials, and so they are listed here. The serials that were not duplicates are found on the appropriate RCAF 4 digit serial pages. 2. After Unification a small number of these post war Expeditors were re-numbered in the 5179 to 5199 range, to prevent duplication of ex-RCN Trackers. These aircraft are found under their CF designation, CT-128, on the post Unification page. |
