Re: No. 4 Ferry Pilots Pool - 18 June 1940 numbers
Thanks for this information. Very helpful indeed! I am stuck on a few other pleas regarding this event.
The first, can anyone provide the full name of this pilot, his Hurricane was damaged on 18 June and remained in France.
Pilot: Pilot Officer J.C Smyth
The next plea, and is abit confusing.
The formation was split on 18 June over France during the first leg of the journey, it seems it was doomed from the start! Apparently 6 Hurricanes and 1 Blenheim landed at Ussel, and the remaining 5 Blenheim's and 6 Hurricanes landed at Marseille., is this correct and did the Ussel group carry on on 18 June and join up with the 2nd formation, all departing on 19 June?
I can't get my head around this one!
Thanks
Danny
