Re: Claim by Sgt Roberts 137 Sqn 19.08.42

My interest is in Des Roberts as I´m trying to list all aerial claims made by New Zealanders during WWll. This includes of course all information regarding the claims.

Hi Peter

Over Easter I've been digging up and collating more info re the Whirlwind and RAAF and RNZAF pilots who flew it.

Do you have all the info. you need on Roberts? I have a little more if you are interested.

Paul

Hi Paul,

Sorry for the late answer but everything has been upside down because I have been moving back into my house after renovation.

I think I have the information I need for the moment on Roberts. Have you found any more New Zealanders that flew Whirlwinds?

Peter

Hi Peter

No worries about the late post. The only other Kiwi who may have flown a Whirlwind, but not operationally, was Brannigan from 263 Sqn. Do you have/need any info on him?

Paul
