130 Sqn, Spitfire BL356 Flt Sgt A W Utting lost 19.08.42
 

Lost to a FW190 whilst being flown by Sgt Alfred William Utting of 130 Sqn, I guess that this had something to do with the Dieppe raid, can anyone throw any light on the sortie that this aircraft was lost on.

Thanks

Hi Ian,

Franks in The Greatest Air Battle states …
Patrol over Dieppe at about 8.50am
No.130, 131 and 309th (US) Sqn
The 130 Sqn was on the top

No.130 claimed 0-1-3 plus 1-0-0 by W/C Blake (POW) who was with Sqn

Hope this little helps.
Kind regards,
