Identity of Ju88 shot down off Whitby 9/10 May 1941?
Can someone please help me identify a Ju88 claimed shot down into the sea of Whitby by 41 Squadron's Sqn Ldr Patrick Meagher at approximately 00:15 on the morning of 10 May 1941?
It appears to be the only claim by a 13 Group pilot during this night, according to the Group ORB. Approximately 30 enemy aircraft were thought to have been operating within 13 Group between midnight and 03:00, most of which remained off the coast between Whitby and the River Tay, and were believed to have been involved in anti-shipping or mine-laying duties. The convoy 'Alpha' was also attacked. Thanks Steve |
