Re: PRU Mosquito captured/given to the Germans ca 1943
JAmes,

Interesting story. The only captured PRU Mosquito I have heard about was DZ 466, Mosquito FB IV (Obviously converted to PRU configuration) , 540 SQ, which belly landed on a beach in France on February 20,1943. It is generally believed that this was the famous captured Mosquito T9+XB which was shown in an airshow in Nov 1943. If you trawl the Internet you can picture sof this airplane. Perhaps Mr. Payne was part of the crew?
