I am about 1/2 way through collating the AWM's records on carriers, including T- Nos, date of change to C- Nos and then to hull No only. I believe Bob Moseley has some records of disposals of carriers, their subsequent fates and some current owners.
The delay in arranging the AWM data is that some carriers went straight to the AIF then hull No, while some were only in the AMF system and didn't recieve a T- No at all, while later carriers missed both these systems completely and got their hull No only from new. It's hard to discover if you've missed a reference in between as, so far, the carrier info is spread over 4 volumes and isn't in a consecutive block.
As can be seen in the example above, carriers 1105 and 1110 had consecutive engine numbers, both received AIF T- numbers 5 apart, but then for some reason were allocated C- Numbers that were 1800 apart!
