Hi There, My father was a member of 54 MU from late 1940/ early 41 through to when he had a nasty accident with a Blenheim. He made a list of aircraft they atteeded to from memory shortly before he passed away in 1992. IF this is of any interest I would be happy to post details, but must point out they are from memory. In reply to other posts they were based out of Marshalls Airport in Cambridge whilst my father was in the unit although they were billeted off camp and spent most of their time out and about at airfields and crash sites. They worked on all crashes not just fighters including Wellingtons and the first Stirlings. My Fathers Section were on detatchment in Coventry at the time of the Coventry blitz working with a factory on how to transport Stirlings as they were such a large aircraft. Jerry Baker
