Spitfire loss at New Romney, Kent - 24 October 1941

[Peter S]

... it was Spitfire W3761 as ORB states

Northolt's diary says Fiedorczuk was wounded but ac repairable. The AHB Cas Cards might give a clue as to location if you would like me to check?

Andy, Chris
I've checked 315 Squadron's Diary (PISM LOT.A.V.53/3A) but also there is nothing about the place where Fiedorczuk's plane crashed. A bit about circumstances such as when, where and how plane was hit and Fiedorczuk wasn't able to baile out bacause canopy was stuck. Aparently he had slightly similar situation three days before.
Of course there is a few 315 members still alive (pilots and ground crew) but don't think they can remember that very acurately.

That afternoon F/O Lukaszewicz flew No. 315 Sqn Magister "To Hawkinge and back". This must have had something to do with the incident, so perhaps it's worth looking into RAF Station Hawkinge ORB.
