Summary of Events for  No. 439 (CAN) Squadron 

as recorded in the  439 Squadron Operations Record Book

for

28 July 1944

 R.C.A.F. Lantheuil 

Cloudy all day. Our Squadron was released from operations for the day. The airman were not so fortunate, they had a little work to do on the "Typhies". This is due to explosions caused to aircraft on operations and the authorities are trying to determine the cause. However, a check was made of all our aircraft for short circuits, oxygen and petrol leaks and a modification was made by plugging the jettison supply line in the inboard bays, removed the lag from the inboard bays to reduce any possibility of petrol accumulating.
