thanks both,

It was very helpful. I have since found the claims for night fighters and have the below for the 4 wellingtons that did not return from the operation including William Hewson

Night: 20-21. September 1944

JaFü 8. Jagddivision/Lfl. Reich:
20.09.44 Oblt. Josef Kraft 7./NJG 6 Wellington £ 14 Ost N/HO-2: 3.000 m. [Szombathely] 23.08 Film C. 2027/II Anerk: Nr.23
20.09.44 Oblt. Josef Kraft 7./NJG 6 Wellington £ 14 Ost N/GO-5: 2.800 m. [Szombathely] 23.12 Film C. 2027/II Anerk: Nr.24
20.09.44 Fw. Josef Brunner 10./NJG 6 Wellington £ 14 Ost N/FO-5: 2.000 m. [Szombathely] 23.23 Film C. 2027/II Anerk: Nr.4
20.09.44 Maj. Herbert Lütje Stab IV./NJG 6 Wellington £ 14 Ost N/EP: 2.000 m. [Hegyeshalom

Does anyone know if the night fighter pilots filed reports on the plans they downed not just the basic details above? Also does anyone know if it is possible to get copies of Hungarian police reports to see if i can pinpoint where these planes came down?

thanks
