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
