Hi Berney, great quiz, but you forgot the Bristol Bombay, how about to also add the gliders like the Horsa, the Waco and the Hamilcar?

Cheers

You're right, I did miss the Bombay, thanks. I've been meaning to add the gliders too, which I've now done.

I don't think the Miles Mariner entered squadron service. I might be wrong though.

You're quite right, it was meant to say Martin Mariner, which was operated by 524 squadron for a while. I've made the change, thanks.

This is a great quiz. You list the Stinson Reliant, which is correct. According to Wikipedia the Royal Air Force received 113 L-1/L-1A Stinson Vigilants, which they named Vigilant Mark I and Vigilant Mark II.

Thanks for that. I've seen the information in Wikipedia but have since checked other reference material and can't find any evidence that the Vigilant served in RAF squadron service during WW2. I'll keep checking though and will add it if I can find something to support it.
