Hello,

Can anyone provide details of the losses of the Romanian He 114 No.4 and No.5 on the 23.04.1944 and the He 114 No.25 on the 12.05.1944?

Thanks
Oleg

Hi Oleg,
- No. 25 took off for an escort mission on 12.05.44 from Siutghiol lake, and due to a pilot error it crashed in the same lake, only the engine and some parts were recovered, crew with minor injuries.
- No. 4 was returning from a recce mission over the Black Sea, together with another 3 He 114's. While waiting to land the pilot did two dive maneuvers over a ship as a stunt I guess, he could not recover from the second one and crashed, pilot died on the spot and the observer three days later.

Will check further for No. 5
