RAF serials

Is there an online resource that matches aircraft to serial numbers? I want to avoid investing in a weighty and dry Air Britain tome just to trace one serial number.

Thanks

Perhaps if you post the serial you are interested in some kind soul could help out?

This site might help you - only goes from WA*** onwards though, which I think is about from 1950...
