Checked with Dad, his squadron was out of Eastmoor which apparently right next to Elvington - his was 432 sqn (6th group - Canadians).  The aircraft variants used were Mk III and Mk VII.  Elvington was operated under the Free French group according to his recollection, bomb group number not known.  I'll try to get some pics with scenery if possible and pass them along to you.  

Thanks - Brian

Real Life has a way of intruding - sometimes unpleasantly.  Take care of real life, and we'll be waiting.
