Petsamo and kirkenes raids 30/7/1941

Hi,
May I wish you ALL a Happy New year.
My first questions for 2006 are -

Losses from HMS Furious and HMS Victorious on the 30/7/1941.
Furious lost 1 Albacore and 2 Fulmar.
Victorious lost 11 Albacore and 2 Fulmar.

Question 1/.
What were the serial numbers of the aircraft that were lost ?
( I do have some but not all).

I understand that Russian Forces were in action over Petsamo and perhaps Kirkenes on the 30th also.
Some of those Russian Squadrons used Hurricanes.

Question 2/.
What if any Russian aircraft were lost either to combat or flak over these combat areas on the 30th ?

Thanks

Alex
