V7409 and V6854
 
Hello.

I am interested by these two because one of them (V7409) was a Hurricane used by a French pilot Henry Bouquillard.

I would like to know where you found these code F and J ?

What I know that V7313 was a F, shot down on 12th october 1940 piloted by another French pilot Georges Perrin.

By advance Thank you.

Cannot help you with the details, but have you tried asking at the Keypublishing forums? Try here: Historic Aviation

I know that several people visit both these forums and Key, but you might get an answer quicker over there.
