Re: Mosquito claim over Rumania on 3 August 1944

I've been looking recently at 60th Sq missions over Romania and indeed there is no mission on the 1st of August 1944, there is one though on the 2nd in the same area where Riedel claimed the victory ( between Bucharest - Ploiesti ) but the pilots reported nothing unusual and returned to base safely.

I've been trying with less success to find something from the VVS side for this date, only chance now remains in the local archives of the romanian police, they usually gave a report for each day with all crashed a/c over the territory.

As Laurent stated above there is also no USAAF loss, i was also taking in count a P-38 maybe..
