Unusual combat 14 July 1943

Hi guys

The older generation may remember an article in an RAF Flying Review concerning an Avro Rota (C.30a Autogiro) from 1448 Flight based at Halton, and two FW190s, which occurred on 14 July 1943.

The Rota escaped unscathed though with a frightened pilot. Who was he? And who were the FW190 pilots? It was believed at the time that one of the latter may have flown into the sea during the action.

Cheers
Brian
