Re: Two Spitfires with LY code captured in 1940

Larry,

The crash-landed Spitfire should be almost sure K9791 failed to return from a sortie over the Ruhr on 17/8/1940. F/S J.D.T. Taylor-Gill becoming POW.
I know three pictures of that machine with wheels down, displayed at the "Victory in the West" exhibition in Vienna at the end of 1940.

Hope this helps,
Michal
