AASF Fairey Battle losses Sep 39 to May 40
 
160 Fairey Battles of the 10 squadrons of the AASF flew to France on 2nd September 1939 with 1 ditching in the English Channel en route. 2 were shot down on 20/9/39, 1 was shot down on 27/9/39 and 5 more were shot down on 30/9/39. Another 1 was shot down on 20/4/40. I assume that other aircraft would have been lost in accidents during the period 3/9/39 to 9/5/40. Does anybody have any details on losses in this period?

Thanks,

Neil

As on the other thread, you need the appropriate Air Britain serial listings. Air Britain did produce a book on the subject, The Battle File, with more information, but I believe this is out of print.
