Favel was born on 27 February 1922 in London to David and Juliette nee Lecomte. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Favel known as ‘Tomo’ volunteered in November 1941. Navigator Ken Scott who was in another aircraft on the same raid, first met Tomo at No 2 Sqn, A Flight 6, Initial Training Wing at Aberystwyth where they both graduated in May 1942. They went on to Anstey, but both failed the flying course and met up again at Ludford Magna in Oct 1943. Ken described Tomo, ‘as a remarkable chap and an accomplished artist who drew amazing portraits of his comrades.’<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Favel was the special operator on Lancaster DV265 which departed RAF Ludford Magna on a night operation to Dusseldorf. The aircraft was coned by searchlights, and shot by night fighter pilot Oberleutnant Hans-Heinz Augenstein of the 9.\/NJG 1. The aircraft caught fire in the central fuselage area and communications were lost. Five crew were killed and three became prisoners of war. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
