tracing aircraft registrations

[Graham Smith]

I have been trying to trace aircraft registrations that my father flew in as part of  RASC(AD) during Operation Market Garden to what seems to be an eternity. He flew out of Down Ampney in a Dakota on the 19-09-1944, then out of Harwell in a Stirling on the 22-09-1944 (there has been conflict of opinion with this date).T/14713141
