Re: Luftwaffe losses PQ18 September 1942

Hi,
According to "Fleet Air Arm Aircraft 1939 to 1945" three Hurricanes downed on 14th September are: Lt. EWT Taylour* (14.15), Lt. GM Torrance (one minute later), and unidentified pilot (14.26), all from 802 NAS.

*This must be an error. "Britan's Fleet Air Arm" by Ron Mackay claimed that all pilots were fished alive and Lt Taylour was killed on 13th September by return fire from BV 138 flying boat.


Claims for 802. NAS:
S-Lt(A)s AR Laurie: 2 He 111
S-Lt IP IP Garrow: Ju 88 and He 111
S-Lt PJ Williams: Ju 88
Brown Section: He 111 propably includes Laurie He 111

883 NAS:
1 He 111 propable + 1 He 111 shared with "White Section (Lt PWV Massy?)"
