Re: Hurricane shot down 18 June 1940
Hi Bertrand
The planned route for the ferry was Cap Frehal-Nantes-Bordeaux-Castres-Marignane but changed to Bordeaux-Perpignan. As Maycock, the Hurricane pilot, boarded an RN destroyer at Bordeaux, I would assume that he was not too far from Bordeaux when he came down.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Brian
