Collision between two Czech Spitfires 15 June 1945

I am trying to tie two pilots to two aircraft but have conflicting information.

Can anyone help?

On 15 June 1945 W/O Landsmann of 310 Squadron collided with another Spitfire of that squadron flown by V.Popelkou.

Landsmann was killed (missing) and Popelkou evidently baled out safely.

I have MH323 at Potters Bridge, Suffolk, and HM330 in sea off Southwold.

Is this correct? And which pilot was in which aeroplane?

My notes and published sources do not agree.
