Re: Langford Lodge
Hi Alain,
Just checked, this droopsnoot wore the code "DPA" on its tailboom. The code "DP" was not assigned to any RAF squadron during WW2, neither was "PA" - so "DPA" could perhaps have been the personal code of a high ranking pilot. This was common during WW2- "D-B" for Douglas Bader, "JE-J" for Johnnie Johnston etc.
Do you know if any pilots with the initials "DPA" ever flew it? The fact that Wing Commanders and an Air Commodore flew it means that this could be a possibility.
By the way, the decal sheet was produced by Dutch Decals/Kits at war - sheet K7/15, it was a 1/72nd scale sheet rather than 1/48th scale.
Regards,
Michael
