Re: 17/5/1942, Hurricane, ME

Brian,

During a ferry flight between Fuka and Sudi Anish (spelling not sure) on 17 may 1942, a Hurricane with a pilot of GC1 ‘Alsace’ and a Hurricane with an English pilot ; they lost their way and arrived over Alexandria. Black clouds of Ack-Ack exploded close from them and one Hurricane is shot. Aircraft dived to the sand wind. Pilot of FF ‘Alsace’ will continue to Sudi Anish alone

Source : logbook of the GC1 pilot

Sincerely,

Bertrand
