Hello,
According to
http://www.rafandluftwaffe.info/wp-c...gjagd-JG77.pdf, on 18 September 1941 1./JG 77 lost Fw. Wilhelm Schneider killed and the Bf 109 E Wnr 6272 destroyed at 90% in an accident, probably in lake Kotozero area.
But this loss is not listed in
http://www.luftwaffe.no/SIG/Losses/tap412.html.
According to the summary of the Luftwaffe losses set online by Andreas Brekken and his team, 1./JG 77 lost this day one aicraft "destroyed without enemy action on non-operational flight", that seems to confirm the first source. But this database says that the loss was reported on 29 August 1942, almost one year later, and I find it rather strange.
So maybe, the date is the date of the last update of the loss, and the Luftwaffe loss list this day may contain some new data.
If anyone can confirm it I will be interested.
Also, I don't have the Prien book covering I./JG 77 in the North in 1941, if someone can confirm that Prien listed this loss I will be interested.
Thanks in advance
