Re: Mosquito or Beaufighter?
Thanks Michal - I wonder why Jo believed he had been flying a Mosquito? Have you read his book?
Do we know which US bomber group was involved in the raid on Creil? Cheers Brian |

Re: Mosquito or Beaufighter?
Brian,
I read only a part of the book. I didn´t note mention about type of a/c. Liberators returend from Mission 443 that day. There were despatched about 250 bombers to hit CROSSBOW supply sites around Pas de Calais, Criel and Chantilly, France. 195 B-17s hit the Pas de Calais area, 12 B-24s hit targets of opportunity and 11 B-24s hit Criel Airfield. I believe the Liberator was from 489th BG. Michal |
