Re: PRU Mosquito captured/given to the Germans ca 1943
The photo I've seen of the Mosquito showed that it clearly wasn't in a "handed-over" state but distinctly second-hand and patched up for a static display. That could perhaps have been later, of course, but it seems unlikely that the aircraft doesn't feature more in other Luftwaffe documentation.
Is there something of a "silly season" of such stories? There is another thread running of a Halifax that supposedly landed at a French base. Again, no back-up evidence of actual German use.
