Re: British Second-Line Aircraft lost in France Sept. 1939 - June 1940.
Bonjour,

The Miles Magister R1910 was left intact at the end of june on the french military airfield of Toulouse Blagnac. Two month later it was still there.

One of the two Dragon rapide left on the airfield of Colommiers was set afire the 4 juin by the British when they left this airfield.
French witnesses said that this plane was usualy used by the British to carry the films from the lone reco spitfire which was based here (hidden in the sole hangar beetween the missions).

Regards.

RB
