Many thanks...
Is it possible to reach Norway coast with P-47 in 1943 ?
Maybe P-38 ?
These are very good questions for your missions. I don't remember any P-51bs assigned to Norway actions, but that doesn't mean that they weren't. Later, the longer range planes were all used over Norway.
By the way, I know someone who was a boy growing up in Norway during WW2. He and his friends witnessed a Spitfire being shot to the ground by AAA fire. The plane crashed about a block or two from them. This shows that Spits were active over Norway.
