Re: Bristol Type 142L, Blenheim Mk.IV

Thierry,

Without seeing your photo my guess is that it is this one:

6 June 1940 40 Squadron Blenheim IV P4927. Shot down by Bf109s during attack on troops advancing between St-Valéry and Abbeville and belly-landed on beach 10.00 a.m. Possibly that claimed by Uffz Hofelich of 3./JG3. Sgt D. J. Rice, Sgt R. C. Moffatt, and Sgt D. E. Peters captured. Aircraft BL*D a write-off.

If you can add anything to these details, particularly a more exact location, I would be grateful.

Regards,

Peter C
