Silly me ... I see you've told us this Adriano, many thanks.

So does anyone know, or can find out what the target ETA would have been for this aircraft? Is it reasonable logic to assert (on this easy night for navigation, moonlit, calm conditions, etc, etc) that, by referencing other aircraft take off times (from Woodhall Spa or elsewhere) and bombing times we could get a "probable" time over target for EE147?

I'm fully aware we'd only be using best estimates, and of course we'll never know if for example they went around again or anything like that.

Thanks, Don
