The overseas club funded at least 100 aeroplanes for service with the RFC but does anyone have a list of types and serial numbers??

Paul,

You could probably work up a fairly complete list from Ray Vann and Colin Waugh’s comprehensive record of presentation aircraft that appeared in the Summer 1983 (Vol 14 No 2) issue of Cross & Cockade Great Britain Journal that was dedicated solely to this subject.

Hi
Im trying to find an image of a presentation Camel C6778 named “Alloa Scotland” that was built in the Caudron factory in Alloa. Ive tried the local museum & newspaper archives with no luck. Is it correct that the funder should have been sent a photo of the plane? Managed to find some images of other locally funded aircraft but not this one. Any suggestions on where to look?
Thanks
Brian

You could try Andy Kemp. I gave him my Camel pictures some years ago and think that there were some British Caudron-built aircraft among them.
