Re: S/L Eric Norman "Timber" Woods DFC & Bar of 249 Sqd
Timely post (well, for me at least). Earlier this week while talking planes with a work colleague I find out that his uncle is/was Eric Norman Woods. Since then I've been scouring the internet for more info on his uncle. I've decided to build him a Spit in his uncle's colors but I haven't decided on which squadron to replicate. Anyone out there have any color plates or reference material they might point me at as a guide? I've heard that Timber might've collided with another pilot in his squadron on their way back to base - nothing definitive though.
And yes, I'm a huge, huge fan of Douglas Bader.
Thanks.
PS. Last weekend, I saw a Spit with invasion markings flanked by two P47s (Colorado Springs, CO)
