Ernst-Christian Reusch
 

Does anyone have records/ information of any of his crashes in either the Fw190 or the Ju-87. He flew with StG51, StG1 and SG1. A series of photographs of him and his aircraft was recently for sale on eBay.
Thanks for any assistance

As well, per Obermaier, at some point during the BoB Reusch and his Bf went down into the Channel and were rescued.

Thank you Matti and Jim
I gather that loss records forReusch's units are at best incomplete. It would appear from the photos that he may have flown 2 different Fw190s but without Werk Nr. that is hard to prove

Re: Ernst-Christian Reusch
 

No record at all of him going down in the Channel-I think a mistake resulting from his BofF crash

Re: Ernst-Christian Reusch
 

I can add that Hptm. Reusch, I./St.G. 1 flew his 600. Feindflug on 1943-07-10 near Orel, Russia.
