Re: Beaufighter T3423

Andy Thomas suggested that 233 Sqn borrowed the Beaufighters. 779 Sqn was definitely based at Gibraltar and was flying Beaufighter IIs at this time; T3423 was a IIF.

Re: Beaufighter T3423

I think I have solved the mystery. T3423 went to 19 MU 7 Mar 42 and then to RNAS Stretton 6 May 43. The F78 then says whilst at Gibraltar, it went on temporary loan to 233 Sqn only to be shot down 7 Sep 43
