Re: US bombers "landed on the continent" - how returned?
Thanks for info.
It indeed appears that 302 Transport Wing was tasked with ferrying crews and a/c, also for 9th AF thru A-40 (Chartres) and A-42 (Villacoublay) and pick up repaired a/c there to take back to England, if home base was still there. This in Oct 1944.
For crews it was necessary to get a flight back soon or at least find some Allied unit to report themselves, lest they'd be posted as missing...
Regards,
Leendert
