I have never really introduced myself either.

Im way above average interested in ww2 aviation especially. 25 years old..student.

Went to Duxford in 2005..my first time. Absolutely blown away by seeing 7 or 8 Spits flying past me. Going again this year with my father, he’s just like me, very interested indeed.

My field of knowlegde so to speak mostly involves the norwegian fighter squadrons during ww2 and its pilots, but I have also been lecturing junior high school students in Norway about Battle of Britain for a day. I liked that a lot 🙂

Sorry for bumping this back up.

But.

I discovered the pilot and the crews graves last night, by accident.

I was jogging in a suburban area of Lillehammer when I saw a sign that said “Commonwealth war graves”.

30 or so British soldiers were buried there, alongside the crew of the Halifax and the pilot A. Turnbull, DFC. I belive one member of the crew survived the crash in 1945.

Actually, I had one ordered for me last year going to Duxford.

It says “132 Norwegian Wing – Heroes of North Weald”

On the back it says “Be aware of the Hun in the sun”.

And the tee was printed in Germany. 😀
