Nils,

2nd May 1945 Typhoon 1b 124 Wing W/C G F H Webb DFC Shot down by flak, north of Gleschendorf. Buried in Hamburg Cemetary.

3rd May 1945 Typhoon 1b 181 sqn Flt/sgt J A Brown Missing on sweep. Last seen North East of Kiel. Flak ? Buried in Hamburg Cemetary.

Does this help ? There are other losses on those dates, how certain is your witness of the date. These are only RAF losses, as well, what about the USAF ? The above stats are taken from Norman Franks’ ‘Fighter Command Losses vol 3’.

Yes please, more John, thanks,

A friend bought one of the Dark Blue World Spitfire replica’s for £9,000 when they were let go. It was exhibited in Truro recently in the markings of two Mark 9’s. Honestly, up close they are as good as the real thing.

With apologies to Mr De Niro 🙂

May I ask, how much of a the destroyed aircraft is likely to be present in the newly restored one ? Surely not much . . .
