Mosquito ????: Fighter Interception Unit. 03/01/1943
Morning: W/Cdr Chisholm in a Mosquito did NFT
At night: There was a mammoth "Bullseye" Alas, however, it was controlled by Tangmere Sector and not Durrington G.C.I. and therefore was a complete and striking failure. W/Cdr Chisholm / F/Lt Clarke in a Mosquito flew twice.
On his second trip W/Cdr Chisholm's Mosquito blew a gasket. Flames belched, he feathered the offending propellor and returned safely on one engine.
Crew:
W/Cdr (90233) Roderick Aeneas CHISHOLM (pilot) RAF - Ok
F/Lt (85850) Francis Callender CLARKE (nav.) RAF - Ok
