Last flight of ML824, from Brest to Pembroke Dock in Wales, following the coastline around Cornwall. Capitaine Henri Luthereau's crew received an escort of two Shackletons. The Sunderland was put on display at Pembroke Dock until moved to Hendon by road in 1971. This photo was added on 13 December 2021, and has since been viewed 709 times. |
