Does anyone recognise these autographs placed in a visitors book in Nottingham on 18th September 1945?

Hi Kelvin

I'm sure the other two are

J.S Adams (Jack Sylvester, 29 Sqn)

J.E. Storrar (James Eric known as 'Jas' 145 & 73 Sqns.)

Cheers
Brian

Re: Battle of Britain pilots

Using Malcolm Barrass' site it seems most likely that MacDonald is S D - Somerland Douglas SASO 12 Group at the time of the signature. http://rafweb.org/Biographies/Macdonald_SD.htm
