Re: Spitfire K9820 and others.
Hello All,
thank you for the fullest possible replies.
Much apreciated.
From what we now have, or rather have not,
16-01-39 - K9820 no name.
18-04-39 - K9798 no name.
09-05-39 - K9859 no name.
24-01-40 - K9811 no name.
07-03-40 - K9800 no name.
28-05-40 - K9821 no name.
To this list I would like to add the following.
24-03-41 - P7429 no name, pilot baled following collision Fowlmere.
31-07-41 - P7425 no name, pilot baled Albury, Herts.
05-09-41 - P8277 no name, a/c overshot hit hedge Matlask.
12-10-41 - P7971 no name, a/c undershot at night & hit trees Horstead Hall, 1m SW of Coltishall.
02-11-41 - P8384 no name, pilot baled low altitude Manor Farm, Wood Norton, Norfolk.
To round off, I have seen in FCL vol 1 and also in the revised vol that for the 27th May 1940, N3237 has P/O. Wilson as pilot who DoW. But should it be P/O. P.V. Watson or was he in another Spitfire who's serial as yet remains unknown ?
Derek Palmers book does not mention P/O. Wilson in the Roll of Honour pages except for a Lieutenant C. L. Wilson (1919).
Many thanks,
Alex
