Re: Identity of F-5 Lightning crashed on take off Vis Island -March/April 44
Hi kaki,

The source that I have indicates that the accident didn't have to occur on the date when the plane arrived at Vis and bringing in the "post from Bari" with an Lightning doesn't seem probable as well. I would assume that the plane indeed landed at Vis for some trouble during the 12 April mission to Austria and crashed on the following day when trying to get back to Italy.

Cheers,
Boris
