Sounds like that's an extreme case to me Kurf. I've looked at a few of them, but so far:
- 32 Squadron flew 60 and-a-half non-operational hours in the first week of August 1940, all of which were transfers to and from their forward base.
- 43 Squadron flew approximately 10 non-operational hours in the first week of August 1940, namely one transfer of six aircraft and their return and another transfer of seven aircraft, and three night practise flights.
- 54 Squadron flew approximately 106 non-operational hours of a huge variety of kinds (beware that one page of the ORB appears twice in a search for some reason).
There's no data for 56 Squadron in 1940 so I'm not sure which one you looked at. Anyway, won't be posting for a while, I hear the human body needs sleep.
