Default "Hi-jacked bomber flew to Scotland"

"Dingo" wrote in

This clipping, which is from the UK's Sunday Express newspaper dated
28.4.74., I found inside a book that had been "lost" for more years
than I can recall.

So now we know, the Ju 88 was really a WW1 a/c vbg
~~
Dingo ;~)



This "hijacking" was detailed in R.V. Jones book
"Most Secret War" published in 1978
(pages 327-330 of the 1998 edition)

According to the text, the 3 man crew was ordered to shootdown
the Civil courier flyight from Scotland to Stockholm, and since they
little sympathy with the Nazis decided to defect.they were escorted to
Dyce, and debriefed. with British preforming extensive evaluations of the
radar and the aircraft..
