312 Squadron - 1941 Hurricane losses
Can anyone throw any further light on the collision between two Hurricanes on 23/6/41 at 13.06 over Maidstone.
Plt Off Kruml evidently baled out of Z3436 with Sgt Mensik making a forced-landing at Detling. I have Mensik in Z3589.
The details I have seem a bit garbled, but the above is what I have deduced thus far.
Can anyone confirm the details, and what Kruml and Mensik were doing?
Was it an Operational flight?
Since my next visit to Kew is some weeks away I wonder if anyone can fill in the missing details - or correct what I have?
