Re: Fulmar claims
Hi Keith and other Fulmar officiardos
Interesting posting, indeed.
I have a note that two Fulmars of 809 Squadron from HMS Victorious shot down Do18 8L+HL of 3./KuFlGr.906 on 11 September 1941. Can anyone confirm this and identify the Fulmar pilots concerned?
PS: Keith, you make no reference to 809 Squadron's involvement in the Petsamo/Kirkenes
raid on 30 July 1941, when Fulmars (pilots Grenfell, Wilkinson and Cooper) claimed two Bf110s and a Bf109.
Additionally, a BV138 was claimed on 9 March 1941 (pilots unknown).
Cheers
Brian
PPS: thanks to those concerned for the unsolicited plugging my recent book '806 RNAS' !!!
