Re: eBay: Allied intrest
#2 is Battle P2332/PH-F of 12 Sqn, shot down by flak on 12 May 40, with crew taken POW: https://discovery.nationalarchives.g...ls/r/C14142148
It actually crashed in Belgium, not the Netherlands as per TNA. #5 is I believe Battle P2249/HA-U of 218 Sqn, lost on 11 May 40. Again, all three crew were made POW. #9 is Blenheim T2282/YH-F of 21 Sqn, lost on the night of 11/12 Feb 41, with all three crew going into captivity |

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
Ed,
Many thanks for that great selection, mainly from the French Campaign. I would add the following. #5 is actually L5235 HA-W of 218 Squadron, lost 14-5-1940 and much photographed. The real P2248 HA-U was lost on 11-5-1940 and apparently the bomb load blew up soon after it was forced landed. #6 at Mourmelon-le-Grand. #8 Spitfire N3180 KL-B of 54 Squadron, lost 28-5-1940. Regards, Martin. |

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
Thx Stig,
So P3426 was coded VY-B (only B applied) and not VY-R as stated on the https://aviation-safety.....45 :-) Mariusz |
