S.81 shot down - 20 november 1940 - Aden
Hello,
On 20 november 1940, Squadron Leader William T.F. Wightman claim a S.81 over Aden (3 miles, East of Khormaksar). Christopher Shores writes (Dust Clouds in the Middle East, p.78) that "members of the crew including Colonello Francesco Via and Sottotenente Vincenzo Priore, baled out (...) and becoming prisoners. Does anybody know the Serial of this S.81 (from 15a Squadriglia - 4bis Gruppo) , and the names of others of other crew members ? Thanks in advance. Regards, Alexis |
