Hallo!

In GenQu this loss is registered as follows:

http://www.aviationhistory.no/ref_db...?lossid=124798

13./N.J.G.6, not 13./N.J.G.2 - I do not know which one is correct.

On the dates you mentioned I have about 150 losses registered, and cannot find a direct match on the locations you mentioned directly.

Assuming you are working primarily on Nachjagd, I have 11 Nachtjagd losses on these dates, the one which might be the one you are looking for is this:

although the location 'südlich Echterdingen' will place you approx 120 km from the area you mention.

My information agrees with Andreas'. I think I posted the Fick loss in another thread you have for the 9-Aug loss.

Hello Andreas, Hello Jim,
thanks for all the information.
do you have information about the crash of this Me110 was at the smal Village Baiertal, this Village is 2 km away from Wiesloch?
I like to find out the real crash date.
a witthness told me the date was the 9 or 10 of August, but i can not belive this.
maybe a nother plane is crash on 9 or 10 of August in this area.
The City Wiesloch is 20km south of Heidelberg and 20km north of Bruchsal/Karlsruhe.
Thanks for your help.
Thanks.
regards
Klaus
