Is this a Blenheim Mk V?
Hi Folks
I have a photo (shown below) taken from a German minesweeper sometime between late 1942 and probably mid to late 1943. My query is, based on the silhouettte shown, is this a Blenheim Mk V? If so, which squadron(s) flew them during this time period around the Channel Islands and/or off the Dutch/Northern France coast? ![]() If it isn't a Blenheim Mk V what might it be? I'm trying to identify the aircraft so that I can try and date and identify the squadron and its aircraft that attacked the minesweepers. The minesweeper that the photo was taken from, I believe, was the M422 of the 24th MSF which operated in and around the Channel Islands. Thank you all in advance for your help. ![]() Paul |
