Thunderbolt I FL837
On October 1, 1944, Thunderbolt I FL837 crashed during attempted forced landing at Egra, Bengal, after running out of fuel while lost.
That si all I have about this incident and I would like to know the unit and pilot (and his fate) of this RAF fighter. Shore's "Air War for Burma" has nothing about this crash, as for most of the crashes happening in India. Thanks in advance
