Re: Otto Spacek (Cz) 615sqn Hurri 10.4.41
Hello,
The extensive study on Czech airman in RAF by Rajlich mentions four accidents of Otto Spacek (Špaček):
On 11.11.1940 with 312.Sq. in Hurricane Mk.I P3810 (DU-?) northeast of Speke, engine stopped during flight, force landed, unhurt (this was the match factory incident)
On 28.4.1941 with 615 Sq. in Hurricane V7687 (KW-?) at Benhorn , engine failure during training flight, crash landed, unhurt
On 12.2.1942 with 313.Sq. in Spitfire Mk.Vb AD361 (RY-L) at Rochford, undercarriage collapsed during landing after Roadsted operation, unhurt
On 6.3.1944 with Spitfire LF Mk.IXC MK131 (RY-D) at Mendlesham, take off accident, unhurt
So either the incident on 10.4.1941 is an additional one or it has been confused with the crash on 28.4.1941.
