PA_841 [20 points]
Another new space invader in the heart of Paris discovered by Tofz4u on 24/04/2010. Date of invasion was estimated roughly 'April 2010' which seemed to be the truth when the book 'Invasion of Paris 2.0' was published by Invader with all the space invaders from PA_501 to PA_1000.
Date of invasion: 15/04/2010
[ Visited PA_841 in person 11 days after invasion and 2 days after first appearance on Flickr ]

Luftwaffe factory airfield May 30, 1944. This was a Junkers factory airfield. It is possible that there is a captured B-24 at the far upper left. A B-24 undercarriage was reportedly used in a prototype of the JU 287 jet bomber. Photo by Lt John S Blyth flying Spitfire Mark XI PA 841. Photo taken from about 30,000ft. This was sortie 1670 of the 7th Photo Group, Mount Farm, UK.
