Dear Remi,
Thank you for your reply, I have no more information, I investigate the German crashes in the community of Epe. I read a book of the Dutch writer A.A.Jansen (Sporen aan de Hemel part 3, page 133) and he mentioned a lost of a Focke Wulf in Epe. Do you know the name of the pilot?

No casualties so no name, are there any other german aircrafts reported in this book for 1944, as it is the critics year for losses hunters ??

Remi,

There are three books, it is chronicle about the airwar above the northern part of Holland. Many dogfights between the Luftwaffe and the 8th USAAF are described. The books are written in Dutch.
