That is great information thank you, Horsted Keynes is only 42 miles from Tenterden so with the height they might have been dog fighting at that is a very good chance the Sgt Cook might well be the pilot that shot Alfred down, can I ask were you got this information from?

I now got to find out about Sgt Cook from 66 Sqn, any additional info about him would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks every one for your help.

Kindest Regards
