Re: 25/05/1940 Hs126 losses
Almost certainly Luc. But I currently have insufficient information to determine which was which.
4.(H)/13 Henschel Hs126B-1. Crashed near Armentières, cause not stated. FF Uffz Hans Jander and BO Fw Fritz Peyinghaus both captured wounded - later released. Aircraft 10% damaged - repairable.
4.(H)/22 Henschel Hs126B-1. Badly damaged by fighters near Courtrai and abandoned over Wattripont airstrip, south-west of Ronse, 8.15 a.m. Pilot baled out unhurt, BO Oberlt Hans Niggel (Staffelbildoffizier) killed. Aircraft 100% write-off.
