Re: Delta Lily
found this:
No. 260 Squadron ... took over a Heinkel He111H, previously 5J+CR of III/KG4. This was made airworthy by the Squadron and was painted in British markings, with the No. 260 Squadron code letters as HS-?. This aircraft was named Delta Lily and was handed over to No. 211 Group for use as a communications aircraft. It made its first flight from Martuba to Alexandria on 7th December 1942, piloted by F/Lt. R. Cundy. HS-? was noted on a scrap dump at Fanara in the Suez Canal Zone in April 1947."
