Re: Fokker S.IX emergency landing at Knokke airfield (Belgium) during March 1940
Dag Luc,
No reports in Dutch newspapers of that time, but found a snippet in the 16 March 1940 issue of the Brugge newspaper Burgerwelzijn.
Little article gives no exact date of the emergency landing at Knokke. Name of pilot only with initial of last name: Corporal-Candidate Pilot "M.".
Book Battle of Britain Then and Now has Fokker S.IV and not S.IX for the Knokke airplane.
Groet,
Leendert
