Blenheim 57 Sqn 17.05.40

Hi,

on the 17.05.40 57 Sqn. dispatched Blenheim manned by P/O Ritchie, Sgt.Wells and LAC G.Haines but it was bounced by Bf109s and force-landed.
I`m looking for serial of this plane and take-off time.

Regards

Robert

Hi Peter,

thanks for the information. Do you think it was rather in the morning or afternoon?

Regards

Robert
