Re: Hudson of Coastal Command - April 1940 incident

Hi Andy:

In an Aeroplane May 2004 article "First Hand History" about the CC exploits of one Gron "Dopey" Edwards flying Hudsons with 223 Sqn., there is a close-up picture showing a Wellington-clad 'erk' who appears to be measuring a hole in the port wing of a Hudson. Examination of the damage pattern leads me to believe it is almost certainly the same aircraft/incident. Said article does not imply the a/c pictured was that flown by the author.

As I'm busily researching battle-damage photographs, I'd be interested to hear if anything else turns up on this one Andy.

Regards,

Bob C
