by: Ben Miller EN479 Flown by my dad for 50 minutes on14 June 1943. 2023-06-08 20:09:04

I found this small picture of EN479 in my dad's logbook. It doesn't enlarge very well. I think I can improve on it though. I will update later if it works.
My dad flew this on his second day in Malta after transferring from 403 Squadron in England. He notes that it was "Practice".
