but how was Hans Nirminger actually killed ?

Hans Nirminger was flying on Bf109 with 1/J88 in the Legion Condor.

On one hand, I read he was shot down on 6 February 1939 by Jose Falco on a I15, in Villalunga,

on the other hand, I am told he was killed during an aerobatic accident on 11 May 1939, near Leon.

Where is the truth ?

Thanks for your help.
