Inherited Groups and Kernels of Derived Translation Planes

When an affine plane is converted to another plane by derivation, the point permutations which act as collineations of both planes form the inherited group. The full group can be larger than the inherited group. For finite translation planes in which some of the Baer subplanes involved are not vector spaces over the kernel of the original plane then the full collineation group of the derived plane is the inherited group provided the order of the plane is greater than 16.
