Re: 46 Sqn. Hurricanes in Norway.

The correct name of the ship that took the Hurricanes back is COXWOLD, not Cotswold.

The ship sailed with the "slow convoy" on June 8th, which would have fallen prey to the Scharnhorst and Gneisenau if they had not run into the Glorious first.
Details of the ship are in the British shipbuilding database.
