You are more likely to get a response if you go over to New Members and tell us a bit about yourself.

Mister Spook:::::::::::

Welcome to Iconic!

Sooty has a point, though, and a little
bit more than just a demand for info
goes a long way

We're happy to see you, and I'm fairly
sure someone on here can at the very
least point you in the right direction.....

Zap us back when you can, okay?

just had a quick look by typing in `Dakota kg360`and I found this interesting site.

looks good......

I had a quick look at the entry for the Bristol Britannia and noticed that they had no mention of the one at Cosford , so I have contacted them about it...

Having checked my grandfathers logbooks, he has flown KG360 4 times, always as the captain.

Logs as follows:

26 July 1946 Duty: S9 (i) Formation 1-2-3
(ii) Formation 1-2-3
29 July 1946 Duty S13 (i) Pannier Dropping
S13 (ii) Pannier Dropping

During this time he was on 1333 TSCU (Transport Support Conversion Unit) at Syerston.

I'd be extremely grateful if you could share any info you find about KG360 with me

As pointed out in the Britannia thread , Cosford's example was never in the RAF until 2005 [or was it 2006] when British Airways closed their collection [which was at Cosford] and presented her to the RAF museum . She's since been painted as a RAF example to fit in so to speak .

Correction , Constellation thread .

I realised after I had contacted them that I had made an error...... so I contacted them to apologise for my earlier email..........
