Branse Burbridge's Havoc II and other Havoc stuff

[MW Giles]

My source was the operations record book for 85 Sqn which contains the diary (Form F540) and list of sorties (Form F541) for the squadron, compiled on a monthly basis

Copies are available from the UK National Archives

Thanks all for the input.

Although the free-to-view versions are in small resolution, they probably give you sufficient detail in amongst the 4-5 drawings.
