109 & 190 losses 14 Aug 44 near Paris
 

Hi
Anyone have any details on a series of combats on 14th August '44 in the Paris area :-

Dornier DO-217 destroyed on an Airfield near Paris

S/L Plagis a 190 15 miles south west of Melun, a 109 4 miles north of Baulne and a damaged 109 15 miles south west of Melun,

F/Sgt Porter and F/Sgt Rae shared a 109 Damaged,

F/O Risely shot down two 109's,

F/O Flinterman shot down two 190's.

Any info,unit, Wn's, pilots,codes, etc, welcome, or even the correct number of aircraft shot down.

Nearly forgot, I think the fighter unit might possibly be JG11 ? or JG1 ?
Cheers
Jerry

Hello,
Maybe you can find your answer in this website:

It's in french but it's east to find Luftwaffe lost during the summer 1944.

There were 11 FW 190s and 6 Bf 109s lost that day with locations such as near Chartres, near Evreux, Ballancourt, Houdan, Nogent Le Rotrou, Mareuill sur Ourcq, Fere Champenoise, Illiers The only one near Paris was a Bf 109 of 10/JG3. No locations for 2 of the JG 11 losses. Damaged aircraft are difficult during this time as if the pilot was OK, it is hard to find records
