Incidents in Yorkshire - November 1940.
This list contains all known aircraft accidents and mishaps in Yorkshire during November 1940. A small number are contained on the main section to my website and are linked in accordingly. During this month the number of fatal accidents thankfully reduced, this was the only month in the War to date where this occured and as will be seen in later months this number increased many fold. There were a number of Whitley mishaps which exact details are not yet known but are included on here and will be updated when information is gathered.
