I've got M2+IK (W.Nr. 723) - which one is correct?
Additionally in Q.M.6. under 25 IX there is a small note: "
in Meldung von 4.9. als vermißt gemeldetes Flugzeug ist abgestürst" referring to Do.18 lost on 3 IX and piloted by Oblt.d.R. Georg Müßig (all crew marked as KIA). Is it the same plane as above or different one??

To what Peter already mentioned I can only add that Ernst Hinrichs died two days later out of wounds.
Peter - where did you get data on 8L+GK? I'm looking for the lost and damaged seaplanes in September 1939 so I'm deeply interested in the data which you have kindly provided!
