#3, 4 & 5
This plane, 8./JG 27 is pictured in JFV Teil 4.1 page 425.
Mr. Prien is saying that "perhaps" it could be WNr.2794, an E-4, which suffered an engine trouble near Cap Gris Nez; damage 20%.

Doesn't seem an E-4, but better an E-1(/B) or E-8. It appears that there is another recorded loss for III./JG 27 on 30/8/1940 involving an E-1 WNr.6330, damage 30% at Dieppe.
Since 6330 is inside the 6319/6401 range for E-1/B E-8 and since the damage is quite the same...

... Why not Dieppe dyke?

Regards, Franck.

Hi Gents,

It appears that most probably the picture has been taken at Querqueville.
Forget Dieppe and Cap Gris-Nez.
Note that III./JG 27 was based at Cherbourg and Théville from 7/40 to 28/8/40 Humm ... doesn't mean the picture was made during that period.

Left, in Prien list, the one occured on 6/9/40 described as "Bauchlandung. 2 km westlich Cherbourg. 30%." But an E-3 ??? (on the picture, not in this loss)

Cheers, Franck.
