The He 59 lost on August 11, 1940, was He 59D W.Nr. 1845 of Seenotflugkdo. 2. 100% Off Cherbourg. Capsized during rescue attempt. No casualties.

To Peter: W.Nr. 1105 was never used on a He 59. Also the He 59B was a prototype and not a production machine. Series production included the He 59C, D and E, the latter being a navigation trainer with enclosed nose section.
