Re: DH Tiger moth & Magister in France 1940

Matt

With regard to the Magister, Peter Amos (in his book) says:
Delivered to 8 MU at Little Rissington 13.11.1939; to 21 AD at Nantes-Bouguenais 28.2.1940; abandoned in France June 1940

With regard to the Tiger Moth, Malcolm Fillmore says:
Taken on charge by 6 MU at Brize Norton 11.3.1940; to Photographic Development Unit at Heston 21.4.1940; presumably taken to France; presumably lost in France by June 1940; Presumed struck off charge 21.6.1947
(that date was a massive clean out date by RAF and had no relevance to actual loss date)

Cheers
Stig
