No. 576 Squadron RAF

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

No. 576 Squadron of the Royal Air Force was formed from C Flight of No. 103 Squadron RAF on 25 November 1943. Together with 103 Squadron, the squadron was stationed at RAF Elsham Wolds in Lincolnshire. Eleven months later 576 Squadron was relocated to RAF Fiskerton, a little way outside Lincoln.

During its brief period of existence 576 Squadron operated only one type of aircraft, the Avro Lancaster.

576 Squadron was disbanded at Fiskerton on 13 September 1945.
