Re: RAF Middle East Losses Wk ending 29-11-41
Many thanks everyone! Leendert - do you know what they were used for? Regarding the date the DC-2 was lost, this could maybe be established by looking up where LG138 was? If "Ridotto" refers to Ridotta Maddalena (which I think is quite likely), 25 Dec is pretty much impossible, since German fighters would not have operated there on that date, but they still would have been quite active on 8 December - when Gazala and airfields west of it were still in Axis hands and they still had gasoline. The Dutch website with the production list and history of all DC-2 has 25 December 41 shot down over Iraq. I seriously doubt that. All the best Andreas
