Re: RCAF Hurricanes in the Battle of Britain

Thanks to everyone for the information on RCAF Hurricanes returned to the RAF. This will eventually be added to one of my web pages, http://www.ody.ca/~bwalker/RCAF_301_350_detailed.htm

My records show 14 of the original 20 aircraft returned to the RAF, 3 written off in Canada (312/L1761, 317/L1880, and 329/L2023), and the rest of uncertain ends. Any further information you may have would be most welcome.

Now, who knows anything about the Canadian built Lysanders that also travelled to the UK in early 1940, and were eventually handed over to the RAF? Canadian serials would have been in the 416 to 490 block. The only ones I know for sure that went to the RAF were 436 to 440, which became DG443 to DG447.
