Hurricane 17 Sqd 19 may 1940
Hi,
i'm searching for more info about one Hurricane damaged on 19 may 1940
i know 17 Sqn had 2 losses but nothing about this plane...only the code
Squadron: 17 Sqn
patrol: between Cambrai and Valenciennes
time: afternoon
code: YB-S
seems a combat against I.(J)/LG2 while escorting a Do 17P of 3.(F)/11
i also see a photo in the book, if you need i scan it...
the info is from page 30, Osprey Aircraft of the Aces 18 Hurricane Aces 1939-40 expanded edition
can you help me with the name of pilot, his fate and the plane serial number ...
regards
