AT32 Condor in RAF service

[OBIO]

Working on reskinning Jens B. Kristensen's Curtiss Wright AT32 Condor. Have found some images of the plane is US Marine use, and found reference to the fact that 4 Condors in Britian when the war started were pressed into RAF service. I have the Civil Registration numbers for 3 of those aircraft... but no indication of what numbers they would have carried while flown by RAF. Would they have retained their Civil Registration or been assigned an RAF registration?

As far as paint schemes for the RAF planes goes...going to use my imagination and some historic info on how other planes of the era were painted and see what I come up with.

From what I have read there were four in Britain at the outbreak of war and that all of these were impressed by the RAF.

Thanks for the info Kurt. Will put it to good use in producing the RAF skins for the Condor. Have the US Marine Skin nearly done.

G-AEWD, G-AEZE, G-AEWE and G-AEWF were given the serials P5723-P5726 when taken over by the RAF, and were scrapped in December 1939.
