Re: Do 18 D-3 WNr 819, 10 June 1940
Hi Laurent and Peter.
Just saw your posting to day. This area is wellknown to me. As I indicated on my website the flying boat crashed in the Hiskosen area SW of island Bømlo. The crash took place at night exactly at bay Gardvik, just close to island Hiskjo. This is also confirmed by RT. In 1940 it was a little fishing station based on island Hiskjo. I am aware that a German report that the crash took place 15 km N of Haugesund. This is probably a typo error as the distance to Hiskjo is appx 35 km N of Haugesund. According to local fishermen nothing was found of the wreck. To day Hiskjo is a wellknown outdoor area.
