I just uploaded a whole bunch of Squadron 452 pictures to an album. My grandpa is W/O John Shoesmith flew in Sqd 85 and 452 between 43 and 45.

Some good shots there. Thanks for posting them.

Any idea what is the aircraft in the photo tagged 0011?

 

[Jeff Short]

Australian Boomerang perhaps? He flew one in WA early on. I'll ask him.

 

[Crimea_River]

Yeah, I think you nailed it. I didn't recognize the curved canopy frame and large exhaust but the Boomerag features those. Thanks!
