FAAM already have one Phantom thanks [/url]

I think the comment about the Admiral’s Barge refers to the Sea Harrier

From the London Gazette whilst with 9 Squadron

http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/35454/supplements/710

Was previously a Sergeant with the service number 985785 before being commissioned with the service number 114962

When was the Halifax ‘nose’ moved !!!!,i seem to remember it as a huge birds nest.

On 30 October 1965 a trailer wound its way through Cheltenham with the massive bulk of the front half of a four engined bomber’s fuselage on board. This was the nose section and crew compartment of the very last surviving Handley Page Halifax heavy bomber – PN323 – stablemate to the Lancaster and Bomber Command’s longest serving bomber on wartime operations. It had been transported from the Handley Page works at Radlett in Hertfordshire and was being presented to Skyfame by Graham Trant and Harry Levy, in whose custody it had rested for several years. Once restored to its previous condition, the nose section will be on view for visitors to enter and inspect.”

Their father, Captain Frank Barnwell was also a military pilot and Chief Engineer at the Bristol Aircraft Company who lost his life in a flying accident on 02/08/1938

According to the Scamble Airshow reports it could be Lakenheath 1988 as there was a Spitfire present and Stearman G-AROY

TFC’s Hawk 75 has never been a P-36. Built on contract for the French Air Force, delivered to France. Much beaten up frame, recovered without engine and outter wing section by Michell Pont from the Cazaux gunnery range. Then sold on to Michel Berthelot, in Beauvais, then sold on to Raymond Capel, in La Ferte-Alais, from whom TFC bought it in1995

Even the two Phantoms?

Not on their exhibit list

A transcribed copy of the ORB we have NEAM records this as a He111. No reference to serials

Thanks
Dave

The logbook of Francis Blackadder records that he shot down both a BF110 and He111, although there is only a combat report for the He111, on the day and was flying R4189.

R4189 was lost on 28th September with the pilot Flt Lt M M Irving.

Francis had flown the same aircraft (R4189) earlier that morning. His usual aircraft was P2874 (AF:F) which he had flown the previous day
