Jean-Louis Roba reports WNr 4308 with IV./KG 100 as crashing 26 July 1943 at Bayreuth-Bindlach

It can't be a confusion with WNr 4380 which had already crashed 19 July 1943

As far as I know there was no WNr 4038 meaning we can rule out that one as well.

Any suggestion which KG 100 aircraft we are talking about?

Cheers
Stig
