Re: Tangmere Station ORB details

That's the trouble with some ORBs - they record the OC's inspection of the latrines or that everyone had to take part in a Gas drill - but they never record the events that researchers wish to find!

Co-incidentally I'm trying to find details of a Stirling that made an emergency landing at RAF Christchurch from November 1943 onwards (on return from an Op) but have had no luck. It was seen by a contact of mine who was based there in the FAA from Nov 1943 but he could not be too specific on the date and there is no mention of it in USAAF records from Spring 1944.

Incidentally as the FAA were seen around the aircraft, local spotters reported that it was used by the FAA. I know they had a few big aircraft but that would be a surprise!
