Re: Fairy Battle loss on 11.5.40?

Hallo Peter

I have no particular reason to disbelieve your details, but in the past (the books Valiant Wings by Norman Franks and Blitzed by Victor Bingham) K9183 has been indentified as lost on this mission with F/Lt Kerridge at the controls, while L5247 is identified as the one flown by Cameron.

Supposing you are correct, what is your source and do we have an explanation why the two other authors made their cross identification mistake?

Since you are quoting the aeroplanes code you are perhaps looking at a place they failed to look at?

Cheers
Stig
