Re: Bristol Blenheim's
Hi,
Thank you for the update with the picture said to be L6670 UQ⊙R. The only photos of L6670 that I have seen show L6670 with only the Squadron Code "UQ" .Although some references do say that it was at some time "UQ⊙R". However It is my belief that the aircraft shown in this photograph is L6660 which was wrecked on 17th September 1940 when it undershot during a night landing, bounced and hit a car. This was at Qotafiya. The aircraft was damaged beyond repair. While L6670 began with 203 Sqdn then moved on to 211 Squadron before being transferred to the Royal Hellenic Air Force from 1st April 1941. Other Blenheim's in the L66?? serial number range that were with 211 Sqdn were L6634 - SOC 1.3.44. L6650 - To 27 Sqdn then to 353 Sqdn. L6655 - To 72 OTU. L6658 T RHAF 1.4.41.(I overlooked this one in my first post). L6660 DBR 17.9.40 L6661 - Mia(ElAdem) 22.7.40. L6670 - To RHAF 1.4.41. (ref: AB L1000-N9999). Alex
