Re: Hurricane Losses in 1938
For L1579 I found pilot Hugh Henry May;
For L1620: (definitively) lost 19-5-40 with P/O H. Dunn. Regards, Leendert |

Re: Hurricane Losses in 1938
Hello Leendert,
Thank you for you reply. Re L1620 and the 19th May 1940 loss ? Yes I too have P/O. H.J.L.Dunn as Shot down nr Orchies, pilot wounded, he baled out. But was this aircraft a rebuild ? As I also have it as being in a crash on the 14th September 1938 with its pilot Sgt. Thomas F.D.Dewdney killed at Holbeach Ranges, Lincs. Both of these are 87 Sqn losses. Thank you. Alex |
