It was from 3/806. Combat occurred at 1214 hrs in VLAA0015. He 111 was damaged but no further details as no casualties. There is a para on the combat in 'Fledgling Eagles'. By the way, were the 235 Sqn diaries of use?

Hi,

it was M7+DK from 2./806. It returned with 20 hits. Andy could you tell me details of English aircraft that were involved?

Regards

Robert
