III./ZG26 over Yugoslavia on 6 april 1941
 
Hallo gents!

Any ideas, who were opponents of III./ZG26 on 6 april 1941?

According to info I have, III./ZG26 flew missions from Italy to close escort Italian bombers in attack on Mostar, Sarajevo and Podgorica.

There were stationed 2 fighter scools:
3 Pilotska scola with Bf109E-3a and Hurricane
2 Pilotska scola Avia-BH-33E

But all main actions over that area happened from early morning to 12:05. I have no info about Yugoslavian fighter actions after midday.

I have 3 claims of III./ZG26, but only 1 have time and location - 16:06, Sarajevo.

III./ZG26
Fw. Richard Heller from 9./ZG 26 credited with a Bf 109 at 1602 hours
Unknown crew from III./ZG 26 credited with a Bf 109 at unknown time
Unknown crew from III./ZG 26 credited with a IK-Z at unknown time
Any known losses of III./ZG26 on that day?

Any additional info is highly appretiated!
