very strange this case Jan, the plane was lost near Marienbad Me410 Wn 10251, cause of the crash flew against rules ,as the accident occured near is place of birth that could mean that he want to impress some relatives, the so-called "Verwand-besuch"

Hallo Remi,
nice to hear from you again.
You are right, the plane crashed very close to his birthhouse. Lt. Hurka buried on communal cemetery of Konigswart near Marienbad.
But in the same region crashed another Me 210, during transfer flight to KG 51 next month (it is private info from you, thanks).
