On instructions from Wing, a treatise on Baltimore Training (or “How the Balt, was tamed for Night-flying”) has been prepared by the Commanding Officer and Flight Commanders.
No flying: Oprep No. 204
It is understood that Jerry has done something about radio location and trials are to be carried out on methods of bombing attack to frustrate the evident success of his efforts. These trials are to be carried out with fighter escort and for this purpose Kittyhawks of No. 7 (S.A.) Wing arrived at the SERTAN landing grounds early in the afternoon.
Before take-off for the trials, however, the fighters were recalled as their Squadrons are to wove up nearer the front tomorrow. The trials have consequently been postponed.
Instructions received from Adv. A. H. Q., W.D., that the I.E. strength of light bomber Squadrons is reduced to 16 aircraft and the I.R. strength to four.
