Hi Ant,
Thank you for adding / correcting information. Back in ’81 Peter Vaughan Fowler asked me to make two models of his Lysander and the info re ‘training role’ came from Hendon, during my research.

I have just been in the loft and dug out the Air Extra published to coincide with the opening of Hendon. It states that R9125 was delivered to 5MU on Aug 2nd 1940, then allocated to 225Sqdn. Subsequently served with a number of different units and on October 15 1944 was alocated to 161 Sqdn.
The item then says ‘ although it is not certain whether or not this aircraft actually carried out any such operations.
