Re: eBay: Allied intrest
 

Wish I had something useful to answer Guys

No great fan of flicks from the 1930s meaning my knowledge of Swedish actors stops with
Greta Garbo.

I put out a request on the Sw Av Hist Society's site, but nobody has so far said anything.

Checking the 'net SF had offices in many European cities (and even New York) but I hesitate when you
Nick call them Studios. Were they?

Cheers
Stig

Stig. It would seem that the Swedish film crews collaborated with the established German studios rather than having their own so you are quite right.

Hi all,

probably Miles Master - France 1940? Striper engine - so probably plane N7578?

Hi Faenor. As per the Air Britain "N" serials N7578 (607 Sqn.) and N7577 (85 Sqn.) were both abandoned in France; for those interested in this campaign this is the Air Historical Branch narrative in 2 parts for Sept. 39--June 40.

Thanks Faenor. I think the Hurricane "W" is 73 Sqn., she had a distinctive white tip to the fin, 35" cocardes and 30" letter (see photo here dated April); the ORB records "W" several times then, regular pilot was P/O R. A. Marchand "B" Flight (killed later in Battle of Britain). Unfortunately could't find the serial. In the photo it's in the small-style but just visible.
