Andrew Thomas, Author- Mosquito Aces of World War 2 (Osprey)

Hi All,

Do any of our forum members have contact details for Mr. Andrew Thomas? I am currently in contact with a nephew of a former Luftwaffe flyer who was captured in England after landing at Bradwell Bay on the 18th April 1944. There is an image of the Ju 88 in Mr. Thomas's book with credit to R. C. Haine. I would very much like to get a better quality image to send to the nephew. If you know Mr. Thomas or Mr. Haine please contact me by pm.

Thank you,

Melvin

Richard Haine was the CO of 488 Sqn & is long departed. I know Andy Thomas well & will ask him. I had same photo but cannot lay my hands on it at present.

Just spoke to Andy's wife-he is away on business TFN and is uncontactable due to the nature of his business Sorry
