Coastal Command's Banff strike wing started operations on September 1944. It was soon split into Mosquito squadrons operating from Banff and Beaufighter squadrons operating from Dallachy. Under the command of Group Captain Max Aitken they were tasked with disrupting enemy shipping between Germany and Norway, which they carried out with great success. Their daring raids of 10-30 Mosquitoes and Beaufighters into Norwegian fjords must have been an awesome sight, and some 30 years later inspired George Lucas in the famous Star Wars X-wings run through the death star trenches scene, with the flak towers and enemy Tie-fighters diving on them.
