I am an aircraft engineer living in Coffs Harbour and doing contracts around the world as well as Australia sometimes.
My father was the pilot of Halifax MZ659 DY-T on its final flight on 8/9 June 1944 and LW195 DY-H on 12/13 August 1944.
I have got his original logbook and there is an interesting history there with the aircraft flown and the places he has been.
So as to preserve this history for posterity I am this week donating all the material to the Australian War Memorial. This includes two silk escape maps of Germany, which I imagine are quite valuable now.
I am certainly willing to share some copies of material and logbook entries of his time with 102.
