Fenham-Le-Moor Farm, Northumberland
Gents and Ladies,
I have a crash site location at the above farm,
I have two eyewitnesses and the exact site.
Unfortunately, I have none of the following
a/c identification
Pilot (believed killed possibly RCAF or RAAF but then again!)
date (1943-1945)
It is probable that the a/c was 59 OTU as I have several 59 OTU sites on neighbouring farms
Can anyone help please?
Thank you
Chris
