I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

188 Sqn featured in the BoB film, probably to avoid upsetting every real Sqn. According to MOD the Sqn indeed existed. JJ has repeated the error of an earlier work in the 60s.

It also featured as a Lancaster Sqn in Reaching for the Stars.
