Guys,

Many thanks for your posts. Just goes to show that you can't believe everything you read when researching!!! The attached pic is of a text extract taken from the book Hurricane Aces 1939-40 by Tony Holmes which is where I first picked up the name Mayer (just zoom to read the text). Further research threw up the name Leander.

Extract from http://www.luftwaffe.cz/jg51claims.pdf

19.7.1940 16:25 Uffz. Mayer Leander Hurricane III./JG 51 32 Sq., Sgt. Turner ,Dover
Regards,

Paul.
