Re: Spitfire of 242 Squadron - North Africa 1942-43

Hello,

Nick .I agree that G was 81 Sqn's code (and said that in one post above). No 87 Sqn flew Hurricanes coded LK for a long time, and in Africa also, supplemented by only a few Mk Vs in 1943 and finnaly replaced by late mark Spitfi1res 1944. 87 Sqn's orb quotes they on 10 January 1944 received news that the squadron is to be re-equiprd with Spitfires in the near future.
So I guess there was a typo in 'Combat codes'.
EN455 flew in 87 Sqn in Italiy 1945.

Regards
Zoran
