Re: Hawker Typhoon original id?
Hi.
It seems that someone must have been mixing these two events up and getting the details wrong also... could of course be the unit itself... The losses as reported by Gen.Qu.6.Abt are: http://www.ahs.no/ref_db/lw_loss_pub...?lossid=117596 and http://www.ahs.no/ref_db/lw_loss_pub...?lossid=110280 Thus... in the first incident it seems that a hitherto unknown Typhoon with a serial number of (probably) 0549 was totally destroyed and its pilot killed. Then, a bit later, the 0956 was damaged 50% (but probably scrapped, even though only damaged OVER 50% counts as a total loss). The point is nonetheless that the Typhoon killing Herbert Gold could probably not be flying a month or so later. So, I guess a new nut to crack. Regards, Andreas B
