Under construction..
This is an incomplete list I will add to it as I find the info.
* "IN"=613th The single alphabet designation would be individual aircraft in operation during missions.
* Serial # is the actual physical number on the plane.(Could be compared to a VIN number on a car today)
* 1st and 2nd names are name changes to aircraft over time. (Probably due to changes in possession of aircraft between squadrons or crews.)


Alterations made to remove unidentified aircraft numbers from Mission Report.

Edit:
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Column Removed
* The "loading list #" would be the last four numbers of the serial numbers taken directly off the documentation for the mission.

The number you are refering to as the Loading List Number is incorrect. I would remove this field all togeather. You can also go to the Aircraft Menu and see this information on the Groups Web Site.
