			 Hi, 2Y-S or GW-S ? Posted previously to n°345 sqn (code 2Y) a/c posted to n°340 sqdn (code GW) on 2/11/1944. N°340 came from B55 (Wevelghem) and posted to Biggin Hill without their planes. They exchanged their aircraft with n°345 sqdn which joined B55. Did have time to paint new code on Spitfire ? I do not know Bertrand |
