2 Mar 1941 Any Luftwaffe casualty matching a AIR50 combat report.

I wonder if anyone can match this combat report from

P/O J M Crabb
RAF 3 Squadron
2nd March 1941 14:35 hours
over the sea 30 miles East of Sumburgh
Sector Serial number KW6
Claim: 1 Focke Wulf 200 damaged and rear gunner expected killed

Having come upon the FW200 P/O Crabb attacked and after experiencing heavy return fire, this fire abruptly stopped, leading him to believe he may have killed the gunner. Two further gun runs were made against the FW200 before ammo was expended.


If this was a Fw200 or other LW aircraft, can it be matched to a German casualty or a corresponding report of being attacked?

Cheers

Dennis
