Bertie Rex OŽBryen Hoare accident with a Fairey Battle
Good night to all.
I would like to know the DATE and, if possible, the serial number + codes of the Fairey Battle flown by F/O Bertie Rex OŽBryen Hoare, while serving with 207 Squadron ( 1938-39 ).
This accident caused him to loose one eye. He later had a distinguished flying career with 23 and 605 Squadron, dying in 1947 while ferrying a Mosquito on SE Pacific.
Thanks in advance for any news about the Fairey Battle accident
Yours
Adriano
