Re: 12 SQ Fairey Battle Loss questions for the WC of 1940
Iain,
You are right, one of the crewman was later captured, but not at the time of the FL. It seems that Peter C. has sent a photo of what he has identified as this a/c burned out on the ground, which is probably L5241. However, I have a separate photo at another location of a PHoG up on blocks, for lowering the gear after a FL. This was also taken by the Germans at an Allied base, and must show a subsequently coded PHoG later in the campaign. I can't identify a SN, nor do I know where it was taken, although there appear to be other abandoned and burned British a/c in the distant background. I'd still like to send you copies of these for your opinion.
Regards,
