Re: Mock combat Tempest V vs. Dora 13
There was no Tempest squadrons in the RCAF.
Flensburg was B.166.
A quick look through the bases of Tempest/Typhoons for the time show only the 3 Typhoon sqds of the RCAF (438, 439, 440) being based at B.166. So the question is, where did the Tempest come from.
3 Sqd at B.152 until 21 -6- 45 when it wemt to B.160 (Katstrup Den)
33 Sqd at B.109 until 19-6-45 when it went to B.155 (Dedelsorf Ger)l
56 Sqd at B.152 (Fassburg Ger) until 20-6-45 when it went to B.160
80 Sqd at B.152 until 20-6-45 when it went to B.160
274 Sqd at B.109 (Quackenbruck Ger) until 20-6-45 when it went to B.155
486 Sqn at B.160 until 20-6-45 when it went to B.172 (Husum Ger)
