Here is what I have about this possible loss:

A Bv 138 C-1 (unknown WNr or code) from 1.(F)/SAGr 130 was shot down by a Soviet aircraft and crashed off Gamvik area, Norway. Its five (unknown) crew were killed. Its was claimed shot down by the lieutenant Aminiev, pilot of a Boston of the Soviet North Fleet.

Merci, Laurent,

So no more than a claim from a soviet pilot ?? We hv one on 20.Oct. with same cause, but sustained by a german counterpart loss, maybe the same, would be great to get the loss for the group in oct . Andreas you hear me ??
