Re: Mustang Losses 239 Sqd. 22-7-1943
Steve, thanks for the additional info, it would seem with the Collis report that there were three Mustanga down in the sea with Bennett coming down at Veurne . As far as I could see there were only the two Luftwaffe claims by Heitmann unless he damaged a third which appeared to get away but came down later. The Fairlop Airfield site speaks of a faint distress signal being heard at 1350 hrs some 30 miles east of Ramsgate, dut a search at dusk found nothing,
