Re: Losses of 18 Squadron in Malta in November-December 1941.

Thank you, colleagues. Another question regarding the loss of Sergeant Jury's 18th Squadron aircraft on December 13th. As far as I know, five 18th Squadron aircraft took off to attack Argostoli, but no attack took place. En route, the aircraft were intercepted by Italian MC.202 fighters, which shot down Sergeant Jury's Blenheim. This aircraft made an emergency landing on the water off the coast of Malta. But it's unclear what happened to the rest of the group's aircraft.

Perhaps you should get the book The Bristol Blenheim by Graham Warner? Z7368 105/107 Sqn (Sgt R Gracie); Z7858/ 18 Sqn (Sgt F Jury). Don't forget 18 Squadron RAF not 18th Squadron!

Thanks for the offer. I'll think about it. I prefer working with documents and turn to literature when I don't have them. I found the answer to my question here: https://www.divinginfo.mt/bristol-blenheim-z7858-m/
