Re: Loss of Do 215 at Ontajärvi in 1943?
I don't think Luftwaffe used Do 215 in this area.
On the other hand, Aufklärungskette (F)/Lappland lost three Do 17 P in 1941 and 1942:
10 July 1941: Do 17 P WNr 1079 missing with its crew
12 September 1941: Do 17 P-1 WNr 4173 shot down by Soviet AA fire during a sortie to Ritajärvi ? Crew lost
30 April 1942: Do 17 P WNr 3547 shot down by a Hurricane of 17 GShAP (?) near Kuusamo. Crew lost
I don't know if the crashplace of the above are known, but maybe the wreck found by Finnish troops was one of these.
