Hudson 206 Squadron 15/8/40
Hi guys
According to various sources, Hudson 'V' of 206 Squadron engaged and shot down a He59 on 15 August 1940. On checking the ORB I could only find a combat for Hudson 'E' (N7367) skippered by a Plt Off Bird, who engaged in an inconclusive combat with a He115. Are these one and the same with obvious inaccuracies? Or did I miss something? Cheers Brian

E/206 engaged a He 115 in YZMF 4500 at 0600 hrs. V/206 shot down a He 59 in NLUB 2400 at 2253 hrs-have a look at my book for the report!

If you would like to take my place on my operational tour, please say as it is by no means a 6 month holiday
