Thank you Matti, that's very helpful.

One further query, which I hope makes some sense!

I have seen that Schuppan claimed a Lancaster on the same night (the night of 18/19 February) at 2010 hours, at Luftwaffe map co-ordinate 7428D4. I understand this is near Borkum, so in close proximity to the Halifax's claim of the nightfighter.

Would this be the same time standard that the R.A.F. used - i.e. he shot down a Lancaster at 2010, but was himself shot down some 15 minutes later by the Halifax?

If that is the case, how would Schuppan's claim of the Lancaster have been reported?

Regards

Simon
