Re: ID of two Hurricanes down in France in 1940

Dear Bernard

You quote L1673 as the aircraft in which Billy Drake was shot down.
ALL my secondary sources say this belonged to No 73 Sq and was the aircraft that R A Marchand crash landed that day.
Checking JJ Halley and AB monograph the L register, the record card of said individual WAS transferred at some point FROM No 1 Sq TO No 73 Sq.

Can you please check your AIR sources and quote VERBATIM what they say about L1673?

Cheers
Stig

PS: Larry. Nice to have someone starting up such interesting topics!!!
Luckily our wifes doesn't know, or they would probably think we are crazy, which of course they already know....
