Faraway Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 N3200 QV No.19 Squadron. Operation Dynamo 1940. This aircraft was piloted by Squadron Leader Geoffrey Stephenson, to help protect the troops that were waiting evacuation, from the beaches of Dunkirk. After shooting down a Junkers Ju 87, Stephenson was himself shot down. He crash landed on a beach at Sangatte, near Calais, where he was captured. He spent the rest of the war as a POW. After the war he stayed in the RAF, but was killed in 1954 while test flying in America. His aircraft gradually sank under the sand. It was excavated in 1986, and was restored to flying condition and returned to the air in 2014. I hope I've done it justice. Jon. Bit of work in progress, disappearing detail. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
