Re: Bristol Blenheim's
Sorry Alex
Makes no difference how we spell it, Google Maps cannot find it anyway.
Luckily I located a list with all the British LG listed including coordinates so Qotafiyah (as it is spelled there)
was either LG-020, -021 or 104. All of them pretty much to the east and probably close to El Alamein.
(All I get is map with Arab inscriptions, which is a dead end for me....)
If the Luftwaffe (or Afrika Korp) ever captured any of them is an open question, but they cannot
have been there for long.
Would it have been possible for the wreck of the crashed L6660 to still be around that late?
After all we are talking about some two years here. I myself am very doubtful about that.
Cheers
Stig
