These 2 missions, one from either side, recreates as best as possible the action on 10th January 1940 in the North Sea berween 9 Blenheims of 110 Squadron based at RAF Wattisham (later a USAF base), and 4 bf-110's lead by Hauptman Wolfgang Flak of I./ZG 76. The Blenheims lead by Sqn. Leader Ken Doran were patrolling at about 2,000 ft. when the Germans attacked. On the 1st pass one Blenheim was damaged badly and on the 2nd Falk shot one down into the sea. (N6203 VE piloted by Sgt. Hannes) The Blenheims here are from 107 Sqn since no paint of 110 Sqn is yet available. When one is I will change it.( The jpgs are from 139 Sqn!) The Bf 110's are C3's which may have been the correct ac for Falk's 'Schwarm'
