Talking about The Sudan, I'm not sure if anyone else has heard of this story but there was a Bf110 that was captured by the RAF in Iraq at Mosul where the Pro-Rashid Ali air contingent was based during it's brief sojourn. There were at least two 110's that were in the Mosul area but I'm rambling now and I don't think anyone will want to be taking a trip to Iraq anytime soon for some strange reason. Anyway one of the 110's was returned to flying condition and flown for a while in Egypt before it was ferried to South Africa. It didn't reach this destination and bellied in in the north of The Sudan, anyone know any more????
