Re: RAF Fighter Command Radio Call Signs - 1940

Andy

25 Squadron Call Sign - RAF Station Digby

25 Squadron were using "KUTEX" followed by numbers for the individual aircraft, examples are "KUTEX 25" and "KUTEX 15" and "KUTEX 16"

And the FC [I presume Flying Controller] initially against "V.6." "Are you receiving me", according to "exhibit "D" a certified true copy of the ground Station R/T log covering No.29 Sqdn. during the period 0001 hrs - 0022 hrs. 1st August." 1940

Source:- The National Archives photocopy of a Court of Inquiry from AIR 14/390.

Thinking about my earlier file suggestions, a 1940 Flying Control file would originally have answered your question, but surviving 1940 Flying Control files are very few, with parts missing (transferred to later files in the Registry which don't seem to exist now) and a very poor representation of the important work Flying Controllers actually carried out.
