Re: 9 April 1943 , 486 Sq claims near Etretat

Hello Chris ,
Thanks , but I have another claims which could solve a mystery . On 14 March 1943 in the morning , F/S Fitzgibbon claimed a Fw190 40 miles south Beachy Head . I just wonder if it was the Fw190 lost near Fecamp with its pilot. This could explain why Fitzgibbon crash-landed out of petrol on return. How did you get the information being Fw190 WNr 5346 , Fw D. Sahre of 5(F)/123 ? Was it a special fitted Fw190 for recco ?
