Re: 1 Sqn on 16 August 1940
Tim, your log book states 1340, so I assume you wrote that at the time of events. I would not be surprised if your log book is more accurate than several contemporary documents, this depending on clerks. Worth to note here that the patrol report you have pasted in here clearly notes take off and landing times, thus excluding possibility that you have had been downed at 1240. Also, it states that the Squadron was to patrol base, so did not proceed to Tangmere immediately. I would say 1340 seems pretty logical and in sequence of events.
