Re: 2/12 - Bf109s on eBay

Franck,

At the EOE WG we've been trying to ID this loss for some time. The camouflage pattern on the plane eliminates this being during the BoB. This is almost certainly 3./JG76. The 14 May 1940 connection makes the best sense so far. As is often the case, trying to correlate the general area of a loss in Luftwaffe records often doesn't match actual crash locations very well. This could be the case with this incident.

Regards,
