It is great news that Beau will be 'coming home'. It was a great aircraft and found its true role in attacking shipping, where it excelled.
Hmmmmm Guv. I would like to take issue with the Museum, or the Scotsman, though.
A RARE warplane, instrumental in winning the Battle of Britain, could be home within weeks after a museum raised more than
£80,000 in only 48 hours.
There was just ONE squadron with Beau's in the BoB, 25 Squadron. The Beau's were used in the Night Fighter role and did rather well, as John Cunningham proved, but hardly instrumental in winning the battle. Even the Blenheim's couldn't claim that, and there were quite a few squadrons of those.
Still every little helped, in whatever form.
