French aircraft evacuated to UK
Hi,
Does anyone know the fate of the following French aircraft that were evacuated to the UK after the fall of France? Around 18 June 1 Bloch 152 (Lt Henneberg), 2 Bloch 151's (S/Lt W Retinger and S/Lt B Kudrewicz) and possibly a Caudrone Simone C635 (S/Lt Wielgus and mechanic Pokrzywka) took off from Nantes and landed at Tangmere late in the afternoon. A few hours later they flew to Andover. On 19th the flew to Netheravon. There may have been another Bloch (type unknown) flown by S/Lt Kowalski. Would anyone know what hapended to these aircraft and crews? Also did other French aircraft make it to the UK and what happened to them. Would they have been melted down for scrap? Regards, Alex
