I found out today whilst working on my family tree that a distant relative was a Fighter Pilot on Hurricane MkI &II's he served as a Pilot Officer on 615, 607 Squadrons RAF and a Flying Officer on 258 Squadron 1939 -1942. It is there that the trail goes cold. I know he was stationed at RAF...

I am most grateful to you for the info and attachments. The attachments especially! what a hive of information. Now I can move onto the squadron research. Reasonably easy as I know the chap only flew Mk 1 and II Hurricanes and came off flying duties in 1942. Thank you again for your invaluable help.

Dakotas (DC3) were used as glider tugs during the D day Landings.

Would anyone happen to know what Aircraft were used at no 10 Flying Training School at RAF Tern Hill Shropshire during 1940. The pilot I am researching has just 'come off 'Tiger Moth's' at No. 1 EFTS at RAF Hatfield around May 1940. ?
