Fw190 Losses, Eastbourne-Somme Estuary, 4 June 1943
Can anyone identify for me, please, the FW190 losses sustained by the Luftwaffe on 4 June 1940, that fell to:
- 41 Sqn's Jerzy Solak, 3 miles south of Eastbourne (seen to crash into the sea) ca. 11:25, and
- Hornchurch Wg Cdr Flying, Wg Cdr J. R. Ratten, off the Somme Estuary ca. 11:45
I understand that 453 Sqn's CO, Sqn Ldr K. M. Barclay also damaged an FW190 off the Somme Estuary, ca. 11:45, too.
Are the Luftwaffe aircraft and pilots identifiable, please? (e.g. unit, markings, pilots, fate, etc.)
I've checked Tony Wood's data, John Foreman's FC Claims, and 41 and 453 Squadrons' ORBs, but find nothing of assistance in this question. Any help or additional information would be appreciated.
Thanks
Steve
