August/September 1940 could be right for a raid on Berlin, I think. IIRC, it was in retaliation for the bombs dropped on London, but I don’t know offhand how many raids there were.

Did a Hampden have the range to get to Berlin?

I was fortunate enough to be at Salisbury Hall for the display by RR299 and RS712 together.

Absolutely wonderful.

There was a “restored” P.40 in one of the monthlies a year or two back where they seemed quite proud of the fact they’d replaced the complete fuselage, or possibly the entire airframe.

If it looks like a Mosquito, sounds like a Mosquito and flies like a Mosquito…

Amazing job, and I assume he’s got a few less people working on it than de Havilland had. 🙂

Hood & Bismarck was a different team to Bob Ballard’s that originally found Bismarck.

After seeing the results of finding the Titanic, Ballard didn’t give out the location of Bismarck.

The documentary mentioned was led by David ??????, a UK based American or Canadian. Hood is in three widely separated bits, which considering she blew up and went down in seconds, is hardly surprising.

I think I’ve seen a Jutland expedition on TV recently, may be the same guy.

Far too complicated.

Just “Go Advanced” and there’s a box to upload photographs.

Several years ago, Aeroplane published a magazine that was basically reprints of Aeroplane, (and Flight, I think) from during WWII. They’re in the deepest bowels of the garage so I can’t check immediately but IIRC it was published exactly 50 years later and was supposed to continue for the duration of the actual unpleasantness.
The War in the Air or similar…

It only ran for a couple of years, and despite subscribing, I still managed to miss one. 🙁

There were a couple of pages in the back where Bill Gunston, with the benefit of hindsight and 50 years’ research, explained some of the apparently strange comments, claims, reports etc.

The He111 was ALWAYS referred to as the K, supposedly standing for Krieg (war) as opposed to the pre-war civil versions.

Pulled from the text so not exhaustive, and there are a couple of squadrons mentioned where their aircraft aren’t specified, but it’s a start.
