Thank you Dan.
I have also a possible date of 23. Could that make sense? The 29. was rather bad weather so maybe there was not much action. Norbert |

Hi
Jurleit in his book states this Me 262 was lost on either the 23rd or 29th. Obviously there is a badly handwritten report that is hard to read somewhere. No USAAF/RAF units reported any Me 262 victory on the 29th, but RAF was more active on the 23rd and the following pilots made claims F/O Yeardley 126Sq 1 Me 262 dest F/L Watt 129Sq 1 Me 262 dam W/O Pietrzak 309Sq 1 Me 262 dam (Me 262 combat diary) Checking Classic's Me 262 books vol 3 does not support Jurleit and does not mention any loss of the Luftwaffe either on the 23rd nor 29th, but speculates Yeardly's victory on the 23rd "probably was vs I./JG 7" Main problem with the four-volume Classic books are their lack of any productionlist and/or loss list. What they have is all in a flowing text. IF they have anything on WNr 111948 it is VERY hard to find, since you have to go through a substantial number of pages to locate it...

Thank you Stig. I think progress is being made. This particular bird was supposed to have crashed near my "old" home town. Thank you for the info.
Reagards, Norbert |
