Price Obolensky

Hi All
I am doing research on Prince Obolensky as i shall make a model of the Hurricane mk1 that he crashed in.
I have found out that he was with 504 sqn RAFA out of Denby at the time on week about detachments to Martlesham heath, a/c ser was P1946 code TM-? This was a Hurricane Mk1 with rotol twin blade wooden prop and fabric wings, one of the first batch made.
all this tally’s with records and 504 sqn had P1931 and P1950 on strength at the time.
The Model is for a fellow work mate; he has loads of things on this chap as he collects Rugby things. I shall let him know about you playing with the Prince.
If any one can help with the A/C code that would help, as it will say a trip to Kew in a few weeks.
Aim all so looking in to 582 sqn and 109 sqn out of Little Staunton as the chaps mum was there in the war, at the time she was engaged to W/C Gibbsons Nav on the Dams Raid.
Thanks Lysander
