Type of aircraft
editThe article says that U-64 was bombed by a Fairey Swordfish, whereas the Georg-Wilhelm Schulz article says that it was a Supermarine Walrus. My recollection is that the Warspite carried a Walrus (I made a model of it more years ago than I care to remember), confirmed by the Walrus article, so is there any source to support the Swordfish version?

- Thanks, looks the most likely and I've turned up quite a few other supporting refs myself; I'll update the other article accordingly. Cheers, Mikenorton (talk) 21:08, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
