Catalina Mk.I FP121/Z «Jøssing» from 333 (N) Sqn. Since February 1942, Norwegian Catalinas operated as «Norwegian Detachment Woodhaven», as part of RAF 210 Sqn. On 1 February 1943, they became the 1447 (Norwegian) Flight. On 10 May 1943, the unit at Woodhaven became A-flight of 333 (Norwegian) Squadron. 333 (N) Squadron’s B-flight was established on 10 May 1943, operating Mosquitos. They stayed there until September 1944. 333 (N) Squadron’s B-flight was deployed to Banff to assist this RAF strike force in September 1944. They stayed there for the rest of World War II. 66
Mosquito Mk.II, DZ700/H, 333 (N) Sqn. B-flight at Leuchars in the summer of 1943. In the background two Beaufighter Mk.II aircraft can be seen. These Beaufighters were used by the Squadron as trainers. R(No)AF / 45 Group, Transport Command. The RAF had established its ferry Command (later named Transport Command) in July 1941 at Dorval Airport in Montreal, Canada. The task was primarily to freight 2 and 4-engined aircraft from Canada/USA to theatres of war on a worldwide basis. In late 1941 four Norwegian pilots formed a unit that in time came to number about 40 persons. The unit was termed «R(No)AF / 45 Group». Experienced pilots, navigators, wireless operators, mechanics, instructors, meteorologists and air traffic controllers made up the personnel. Many pilots and aircrew members served in the unit during periods of rest from other operational flying. In the beginning of 1942 the aircraft commonly ferried were the Hudson, Lodestar and Venturas. The usual route taken was Gander or Goose Bay, Greenland, Iceland and Prestwick. Some B-24 Liberators went by Gander and Prestwick to the Far East. B-25 Mitchells, A-20 67
