Crashed Bf110 S2+EC StG77

Hi
At eBay here there is a photo of a crashed Bf110. The aircraft seems to be coded S2+EC, and therefore of Stab.II/StG 77...anymore details will be appreciated.

I think, that it is S2+LC. Possible candidates:
1941-06-23, Stab St.G 77, Bf 110E-2, 3751, Feindbeschuß, Bruch 20 %.
1941-07-09, Stabsst./St.G 77, Bf 110E-2, 3754, Bubesari, Feindeinwirkung. Bruch 10 %.
1941-07-28, Stabsst./St.G 77, Bf 110E-3, 2364, Fl.Pl. Bjelaja Zerkow, Durch Bf 109 geschoßen. Bruch 15 %.
1942-02-26, Stab St.G 77, Bf 110E-1, 3425, Rowno, Unbekannt. Bruch 50 %.
1942-04-05, Stab St.G 77, Bf 110E-2, 3752, Fl.Pl. Mariupol, Bauchlandung infolge Motorstörung. Bruch ? %.
1942-05-15, Stabsst./St.G 77, Bf 110E-2, 3758, S2+LA, Wladislawowka, 20 km nördlich Feodosija, Notlandung. Bruch 20 %.
1942-06-13, Stab St.G 77, Bf 110E-3, 2500, Melitopol, Motorstörung. Bruch 45 %.
1942-09-06, Stab St.G 77, Bf 110E-2, 3751, Fl.Pl. Taganrog, Rollschaden. Bruch 20 %.
1942-11-11, Stab St.G 77, Bf 110D, 3351, Beloretschenskaja, Flakbeschuß. Bruch 25 %.
1942-11-30, Stab St.G 77, Bf 110E-2, 3800, Millerowo, Flakbeschuß. Bruch 15 %.

1942-05-15 would be my first choice.

Re: Crashed Bf110 S2+EC StG77

Many thanks for your work on this Matti. I wasnt convinced with 'E' as the aircraft id, so Im sure you are correct with the 'L'

I note that your first choice has S2+LA as a code and all of your candidates are listed as Stab./StG 77 rather than Stab.II/StG 77 which S2+LC should belong to, so not sure this aircraft can be any of them?

Re: Crashed Bf110 S2+EC StG77

Sorry, my mistake. I was looking only the letter L. Should be more careful.
The problem is, that I have no Bf 110 -loss for II/St.G 77, which could fit. According to Bestandliste (from March 1942 onwards) only Stab was operating Bf 110. All the Gruppen had Ju 87 only. Therefore it must be that your case was in 1941. For 1941 I have only one Bf 110 loss for II/St.G 77 in 1941-07-20, but that was 100 % and the crew killed. Mysterious.
