My father was trained as a pilot in S Rhodesia in 1943/4, on earning his wings he was retained as a flying instructor but then moved to No. 24 BG&NS at Moffat. I have his logbook, many of his notes and his diary plus his photograph album including some overlap aerial photos of Bulawayo for instance.
I'm particularly interested in the Hurricane that he flew on one occasion, he didn't enter its serial number in his logbook though he did put that he did an oxygen climb to 20000'.
I'm very happy to share any of this with anybody who may wish to see it, and to hear from anybody who may be able to shed a little more light on any of the Hurricanes that were part of the RATG.
