Warburton's Italian victories

Hi guys

Hopefully our Italian members may be able to help.

Adrian Warburton (and his gunners) made a number of claims against Italian aircraft whilst flying Marylands on recce sorties from Malta 1940-1942. I'm seeking identities of units, names and fates of crews, please:

12/10/40: Italian fighter damaged (between Taranto-Brindisi)
30/10/40: Z506B shot down (Taranto-Brindisi)
2/11/40: CR42 damaged (Taranto-Brindisi)
7/11/40: MC200 damaged (Taranto-Brindisi)
24/12/40: SM79 shot down (Bay of Naples)
20/6/41: 3 SM79s on ground at Misurata
9/7/41: MC200 probable (Tripoli) apparently G50 of 51 Stormo
22/7/41: Z506B shot down (east of Syracuse)
7/9/41: SM79 damaged
24/9/41: Z506B shot down (Eastern Ionian Sea)
29/9/41: MC200 shot down (Marittimo)

Also, while flying Spitfires:
21/9/42: Do24 damaged (off Agigento)
19/11/42: Ju88 (Gulf of Tunis) apparently Me210 2N+DR of III/ZG1
10/7/43: Bf109G, Bf109G damaged (off Syracuse)

Fingers crossed!

Cheers
Brian
