Mike
Some probable tie ups for you
313048 Texan really 44-81506 civil reg G-TJDN
3200 probably N3200 Spitfire Mk1a civil reg G-CFGJ
393 is 18393 Canuck
X4650 Spitfire 1 civil reg G-CGUK
#hurricane code CR-S.......CR-S is worn by Spitfire LF XIVe TD248..........the ex Sealand Gate Guard
Yale probably 3349 civil reg G-BYNF

Heinkel He 111 is correct as B.21-27 thats its Spanish serial number9 not a code) as it is a CASA built one

451288 is 44-51288 Consolidated Liberator.

Any further details on the others would help but as you probably know there are lots of "ins and outs" at Duxford in the repair and maintenance facilities

If of use to you and happy with them suggest editing your post by deleting these from your list...

regards Dave

Try G-RJAH for Stearman code 44.

The 'long nose' Blenheim IV nose is the one that came off the currently airworthy G-BPIV when replaced by the 'short nose' during rebuild after a crash.

Navy aircraft with wings folded, not Corsair: Wildcat, Bearcat (still there?), Sea Fury all candidates.

My references are too out of date for the rest.
