186 Squadron 'C' Flight

Hi,

On March 10th 1945, C flight of No.90 Squadron transferred to No.186 Squadron. This flight under S/Ldr J.H Day DFC were 'non' Operational but engaged in 'secret' tests. The main role was to appraise the Mk.VI H2S system, code named ‘Liontamer’. I have not been able to find any information on the 'Secret Flight, or Liontamer at the NA.

Anyone help, with details, on the above please.

TIA

Steve
