Re: SCREWBALL BEURLING

Hi Brian,

I started reading your book and it seems very well reserched; the complete list of Beurling's flights is very interesting.

Please I have two questions:

1- photo on pag.106 shows Beurling in the cockpit of his plane with around 19 kill markings on the cowling; this spitfire is not his MA585 KH-B (letter "K" is not there as it was in the MA585) so could it be a Spitfire flown with 249 Sqn in Malta? If so, could it be T-L EP706 (even if the kill markings on the color profile do not match)?

2-Beurling was always quoted to have shoot down 31 and 1 shared enemy planes, but I found in the list in your book only 30+1; have I missed some one?

Thank you,
regards
Flavio
