Re: Mosquito NS979 487 Squadron lost 17/9/44

Hi Mark

Yep, you seem to be spot on! Egg on face again! And yes, I did take 'ftr' to mean fighter - I must admonish both Chris Shores and Chris Thomas for these misleading notations. They should write 'FRT' in higher case, as thus, and not lower case which suggests an abbreviation for fighter. Chris Thomas was on the phone to me a couple of days ago but I hadn't spotted the entry then.

Anyway, Mark, thanks for pointing this out - hopefully I won't make a similar mistake again. Also, my geography requires some work, I see!!

Cheers
Brian
