This is probably one of the squadrons that was involved in the attempt to supply the Polish Resistance during the Warsaw Uprising of 1944. IISR, they flew from Brindisi. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.4.57.101 (talk) 20:04, 5 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

I’m pretty sure that the proper name here would be “squadron” not “flight”. I could be wrong but the latter seems like a mistranslation. Volunteer Marek 17:44, 8 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

This was a RAF flight. You can tell by the four digit number and by sources: [1][2][3]. Look at Royal Air Force#Flights and List of Royal Air Force aircraft independent flights for RAF lingo and background.--Ace303 (talk) 15:19, 10 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
