Never seen the BBMF Dakota on Caen during those days, only G-ANAF in new splendid RAF markings and only carrying it’s original KP220 serial
The BBMF operated from elsewhere..

Cheers, Jan
spotting is just like fishing only less slippery.....

Wasn’t aware that G-ANAF also participated. Must have been that one then. Will have to run through a bunch of pictures now....

That was indeed the one I have seen flying but that one (ZA947) featured nose art as well as "UK" titles around the nose, this one had no additional markings at all but definately featured RAF roundels and invasion stripes as being the only noticable markings

Could very well have been that one as pictures of her in RAF / D-Day markings (dated May 29.) also show no additional markings: https://imgbro.com/photo/47973407243/g-anaf

Thanks for the help!

Just one more request: does anyone know which Aeronavale NH-90 was flying from the Navy Vessel at Omaha Beach on June 6/?

I didn't, I'm also still short of the serial of the TB-30 that crossed the beach slightly west of Omaha Beach aroung 13.00h on the 6th..., anyone?
Tried to look for the serials on live mode-2 SBS reports but couldn't get back that far, perhaps anyone has access to those reports?

Four out of five TB.30s that were active in the area did have a special tail, so if you have a photo, it will be easy to identify (even if it is a long distance shot).

On 07/06/2019 we saw a C-37 with registration "1944" on its tail in Cherbourgh. Does anybody knows which is the real registration of this one?
