According to Cornwell and Franks FCL (first edition) MacQueen was in P2767 on the 9th.
Since P2767 is specifically mentioned in documents to have been lost on the 9th, who was lost in
that aircraft that day?
And from where comes the change he was in P2726?
I also wonder if it was possible for Dini to force land the same day (18th May) in both P2797 and P3535?
Hectic days and hectic measures, I know, but since Dini most likely was hit by return fire from the
two Do 17s he claimed as damaged he must at least have been a bit shaken up....
Perhaps we was very unlucky....
