Description
Mosquito NT229 took off from RAF Thorney Island at 1600 hours on the 22 August 1944, being part of a Squadron force of 13 aircraft detailed to carry out a daylight attack on marshalling yards and ammunition and supply transport at Chagny near Dijon, France. The formation was led by Wing Commander Panitz flying in NT229 which failed to return from the mission. The aircraft when flying very low struck the side of a hill and was completely wrecked and both crew members were killed.
