Of course John, I overlooked it! Lt. Beudel flew his usual "Dora", wich was damaged. He flew C-6 on his next and last mission.

Look at claims reported e.g. by III./ZG26, I,II./JG51. They were detailed to fly fighter sweeps in attack areas of KG2, KG3 and Erp.Gr.210 and III./ZG26 was most likely flying direct escort for one of those units.

Both claims of 6./JG51 (Priller, Haase) fits good with RAF losses at that time and area, south from Martleshem-Heath to Clacton.
III./ZG26's claim fits also, as it was over Harwich area at the same time.
Claims on RAF side - 1Sqdn - 1 "Ju88" damaged (probably Beudel's Bf110), and 2 Bf109 destroyed. 32 Sqdn (not 17th, as I previously thought) - 1 Bf109 destroyed.
So, all those RAF fighters were not downed by Erpr.Gr.210...
THX friends!
