I has some questions about the Collishaw's :N5492". Had the fuselage and stabilizer code "C"? Had the machine two machineguns? Anyone can answer me about questions. Thanks!

Sincerely,
Erich

Collishaw flew three Black Marias.
N5490, N5492 and N533. Only N533 was a twin-Vickers Clayton and Shuttleworth built a/c. At least N533 also carried the letter C on fuselage sides and stabilizer and had a black fin as well. Did Collishaw refit N5492 or any other Naval 10 Tripes in the field? Perhaps more knowledgeable formites can confirm or deny this.

Erich,
Of the 27 Naval 10 Triplane victories scored by Collishaw during May/June '17, I have no further breakdown at this point. Collie was involved in two crash-landings/OOC during this time, but it is unclear to me whether N5490 and/or N5492 were destroyed.

Thanx Mike.
Which a/c was Collishaw flying when he was shot down Jun 8, and when shot down again in July?
