Daniel,

According to Prien et al. in Die Jagdfliegerverbände der Deutchen Luftwaffe, Teil 1, the only claim by a Bf 109 pilot on 2.09.39 was by Hptm. Johannes Gentzen, Kommandeur of I./ZG 2, for a PZL P-23 at 18.00 hours south of Radomsko.

Regards,
Tom

Hmm
I find this information in Luftwaffe claim statistic too, but Gentzen going to a region Radomsko, staff 3 fly to patrol Czestochowa-Dzialoszyn and in this region shooting my plane about 11-12 hour AM in the some day. I have few claim stat Luftwaffe but nothing says about this.
I'm searching yet.
