Sent to Quebec on the Duchess of York? edit
It seems that Lachmann was sent to Quebec. Was the Isle of Man exile before or after this voyage? It seemed that the prisoners on the Duchess of York were at first told that they were going to the Isle of Man (see p. 55).Koch, Eric (1985). Deemed suspect : a wartime blunder. Halifax, N.S.: Goodread Biographies. p. 58. ISBN 9780887801389.
I've removed the claim that he was sent to the Isle of Man; maybe that needs to be re-instated with a source if it's true, but it doesn't seem to connect well with the trip to Quebec. --Slashme (talk) 15:13, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
OK, so I've found a reliable source that says he was sent to the Isle of Man. Did he stop off there while the rest went to Quebec? Was he returned there later? I'm clueless. --Slashme (talk) 15:19, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
- If the Duchess of York sailed for Quebec from Liverpool then Lachmann may have been dropped-off at the Isle of Man en-route.
- IIRC, Lachmann's employers - Handley Page - interceded on his behalf and he was later released. It was during the 1940 invasion scare IIRC, and from what I remember his detention was to some extent a bureaucratic mix-up due to the urgency of the time, as all 'alien's from 'enemy' countries were arrested and interred for a while. Most were later released. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.31.130.20 (talk) 11:23, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
Boundary Layer and Flow Control edit
Please add a section about Gustav Victor Lachmann's book of the above title. It is available through Amazon but it does not show there that it contains a number of papers written by well-known experts as well as experience gathered from Handley Page Ltd., Gustav's work place. I happened to work there at this time.Macrocompassion (talk) 13:41, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
