Re: Hydroplanes used by the RAF ?

There was the No.2 Yugoslav Squadron, operating eight Do 22 floatplanes and a SiM XIV-H floatplane under command of No. 230 Squadron / 201 Naval Cooperation RAF Group from Alexandria and Aboukir, after they escaped from Yugoslavia in April 1941. From 7 May 1941 until 23 April 1942 the squadron flew 912 combat missions (1.760 flying hours) and lost four aircraft:
Do 22 "311" on 26.8.41.
Do 22 "312" on 22.10.41.
Do 22 "307" on 22.12.41.
SiM XIV-H "157" on 2.2.42.

Cheers,
Boris
