Re: Wekusta 51 at Vannes, 2-6 June 1944
Thank you, Ed.
Cracked it, Nick. The track that was flown on 2 - 5 June was Vannes (or Rennes as appropriate) - 47 30N 03 30W, then direct to 51 30N 10 30 W. On the 1st the northern turning point was 52 30N 11 30W. The northern turning points are consistent with the positions of the observations plotted near Valentia (51 55N 10 20W) in southwest Ireland on the Met Office charts - which is what I was trying to confirm. My apologies for throwing in a red herring in post#1 by stating the way-point was 49N 09W. It would appear that by this time of the war the standard track was no longer being used. My thanks to all respondees - your help is much appreciated. Brian |
