Regia Aeronautica Transfer Flight Sept. 1940
While on a transfer flight from Italy to Belgium several BR20s crashed following weather problems . One book gives the date as 24th Sept. the Falco site shows the 25th while the Luft QM's returns gives the date as 27th Sept. Could anyone confirm which date is correct please. the QM's returns show 3 emergency landings with no damage/injuries, one crashlanding by Spa ? with no details, one BR20 as 70% with one injury, one at 90% with one officer injured, one at 50%, one at 35% and one at 100% by Wasserburg with three airman killed and two officers wounded. Are the aircraft numbers and names of the casualties known,
Regards
Brian Bines
