Alain and Alex, thanks a lot. That confirms my opinion. That's the good one.
Alex, what do you mean with "possible crew Geofs" ? Is Geofs the firstname ( for geoffrey ? ) or the surname ? Can you say me where this information comes from ? Do you have an idea about the mission and the airbase ? Thanks. Regards |

It means Geoff's search engine on http://www.hut-six.co.uk/cgi-bin/search39-47.php that gives a perfect tool to browse CWGC in more ways than the website itself.
But if you find a possible name, then it regrettably also means that fatalities were involved... Regards, Leendert |

Leendert,
Ok, thanks. I didn't know this website. I searched always with CWGC website. In this case, the pilot was safe and I don't have any name ... Then, always looking for a name or other info about the plane. If somebody has that ... Once more, thanks a lot. |
