Re: 354th FG Mustangs on 5th / 6th June 1944
Taking into account BDST Sunset at sea level on the 5th June 1944 for 5300N 0000E (South Lincolnshire) was 22:20 hrs adn sunrise in the same place was at 05:37 hours
The times get later the further west you go and there are less hours of daylight the further south in summer . Altitude also extends the amount of daylight seen. There is a difference between sunset and the various twightlights (civil, nautical and astronomical too) I am primarily intersted in Bomber Command, which is why I only have figures for Lincolnshire The RAF troop carriers did not take off until after 22:25 hrs on 05.06.44. But there were enough fighters and aircraft movements throughout May and June 44, another raid is not going to signal Invasion Martin
