Curtiss-Wright propellers

[sedbergh]

Dear all,
I am researching the history of Haddenham Airfield in Buckinghamshire, England. For some years it was home to the Hordern-Richmond propeller factory. During 1942 they did some work using a Curtiss Tomahawk from Boscombe Down, replacing the Curtiss-Wright metal blades with wooden ones of their own design.
The photo below shows Edmund Hordern (centre) in company with two Curtiss-Wright reps, possibly at Kidlington, possibly at Haddenham.

Anybody have any clues as to how I might find the identity of a) the two reps and b) the Tomahawk involved?

I am still writing the 'story' of Hordern-Richmond at Haddenham and would like to put names to faces if possible.

Thanks for your help,

Peter
