Re: Mosquito shot down by RAF MUstang 9 April 1945

Hi guys

To summarise: It seems possible that GRII/33 may have been responsible for shooting down the US Mosquito on 9 April 1945. Anyone able to expand on this?

And from reading the GRII/33 website, a Mustang from that unit, flown by Lt Chautemps, was attacked and damaged by a French Spitfire of GCII/7 sometime in February/March 1945. I note that Bf109s were claimed by GCII/7 on 9/2/45, 27/2/45 (two), 18/3/45 and 14/4/45. Might one of these have been Chautemps' aircraft?

Cheers
Brian
