No. 7 Squadron Royal New Zealand Air Force was a
RNZAF in World War II
.
Number 7 Squadron formed under Squadron Leader A. J. Turner at
Vickers Vincents. The squadron was responsible for patrols of Northland and the northern approaches. Squadron Leader Ron A. Kirkup took over the squadron in December 1942. It seems to have been planned to re-equip with Lockheed Venturas, but as the immediate threat of invasion and surface raiders passed, the squadron was disbanded in May 1943.[1]
Squadron code letters were "UW".
