User talk:Paaln/Norwegian World War II pilots and crew

Latest comment: 11 years ago by Olddemdike

Good afternoon! During your research have you ever come across details of a Norwegian pilot involved in a crash / forced landing in Scotland, at a place described as "Haremoss a part of Headshaw Farm which is in the hamlet of Ashkirk a few miles from the town of Selkirk."

We don't have a name, aircraft ID, or date, except that it was "early in WW2". It was recorded locally at the time as being a Hurricane, but many think it was a Spitfire. The pilot allegedly walked away with just a broken nose

Its proved impossible to find any facts about the incident, but its become key in unravelling a very strange story told in this form thread http://www.pprune.org/military-aircrew/474261-spitfire-crash-landing-scotland-ww11.html

If you could shed any light - even if only to say no Norwegian was involved -it would help to clear the mystery

many thanks
