Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

Hello Alex,

In my humble opinion, the Captured Blenheim's Luftwaffe code was not
"BG + GD", but "BG+GQ".

For memory this Bleinheim belonged to RAF Squadron N°254 and was coded QY-K, serial Z6103.

Woops, my typo(again). Have edited my post.
Thanks Pierre,
Alex
Hopefully here is a link that shows the "GQ"

Most likely a pre-war shot of Handley Page 42W G-AAXD landing somewhere.
Its last flight was on 7 Nov 1939 when it was badly damaged in a force landing.

Cheers
