According to Air Britain No.2 PRU was formed 17.10.1940 at Heliopolis with Marylands. They had detachments both in Palestine and later Lebanon not to mention various places in the desert.

To me it rather looks like you are talking about the set up of one of these detachments (1.6.1941) in the desert, rather than the whole unit as such.

Thanks for quoting from the ORB for us.
Whatever force landed at Derna (if anything) on the 26th can't have been one of their Hurricanes.

Cheers
