Hello
http://www.airhistory.org.uk/dh/_DH9...odn%20list.txt
Mosquito NFXIX TA411 Missing on ferry flight between UK and Rabat 3.10.1944
Can anyone help determine the names of the crew Mosquito TA411?
Geoff's and CWGC do not give answer.
Thank you in advance.
Kind Regards
Pavel

Hello Pavel,
I see that the answer has been given on the RAF Commands Forum.
However why is it that the date of death for both Entwisle and Dean is given on the CWGC and Geoff's sites as 31st October 1944 ?
TA411 loss date is given as 3rd October 1944 ?

Hello Alex
Pierre by ORB writes (suppose writes correctly) :
"Portreath, 31Oct'44, Amongst Several aircraft dispatched Between 0715 and 0810 hrs is mention of Mosquito XIX TA411. The No.1 Overseas Air Despatch Unit ORB (AIR 29/471) records," All These aircraft arrived safely except statement MOSQUITO XIX. TA411 Which is missing. No news of this aircraft has been received.
The crew Were F / O. DEAN and W / O. Entwistle. "
I assume the error will be on website:

Just a typo. October 3, 1944 - October 31, 1944
