Re: One more Kittyhawk in Desert

Hello,
From 3 RAAF ORB the squadron received its first two Tomahawks on the 14th May 1941. By the 20th seven a/c had been received but of these two had already been damaged in training along with the Gauntlet that was used to give the newer pilots experience as they had not flown for up to five months before joining the squadron.
Dates,events,a/c serial numbers, Pilots names all given but can see no indevidual a/c in squadron letters mentioned.

31 Kittyhawks with the squadron 20/22 December 1941.

Just for interest.
Alex
