antarmike Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 The RAF's first operational Jet Fighter, the Gloster Meteor entered squadron service on July 12th, joining 616 Sqdrn but this day sees two firsts. A Meteor flown by Fg Off "Dixie" Dean uses its wingtip to topple a V1, sending it crashing out of control, but minutes later Fg Off J K Roger also from 616, shoots down another Doodlebug using his guns.
