Re: Question on the attack on Driffield airfield on August 15th 1940

Thanks Chris
There was the movement of the ”B” Flight of 73 Sqn from Church Fenton to Leconfield in the morning of 15th for the protection of the convoy Arena, or that was at least the official reason for the movement. But of course the fact that the “A” Flight of 73 Sqn was kept circling over Church Fenton after the scramble indicates that the target was not known. Luck/chance also has its place in the history.

Thankfully
Juha
