Lancaster VN-T DV189 50 Sqn

Looking for family members of this aircraft’s crew. Or anyone with the story of the July 30, 1943 mission. Have seen posts alluding to family members having accounts of this mission.

 

Aircraft crashed at RAF King’s Cliffe on its return to the UK.

 

I am currently opening a museum on the site of the old King’s Cliffe airfield and would like to tell the story of this crew’s ordeal on this mission.

 

More details of the museum can be found here:

Have got the 50 Sqn ORB and 50 Sqn association newsletter that covered the crash landing

 

Mike,

You may want to have a moderator change the title of your thread. The aircraft you are asking about carried the serial DV197.

DV189 was a No. 550 Squadron Lancaster.

Regards,

Dave
