The first loss was reported as 100 % at first. Later - after the occupation of the area - the a/c was founded and repaired. The second loss was an year later (not an week before). The a/c was repaired again and given to an school unit --- quite simple.

In the last JFV 11 I gave Mr. Prien some other examples of Bf 109 reported in GQM as 100% and later rescued by Lz.3/108 (North Africa) with 20 % or 70 %.
