The very start of RAF Middleton St George, these are the movements (known) flown on missions during the war, the reports are taken from official sources so we can't take into account typing errors reporting wrong aircraft (we have corrected some) and missing missions. Where there are no notes against a flight they are assumed to have bombed the target (or what they thought was the target).
