Typhoons of 266 Sqn claimed a Ju 88 50 miles east of Cromer at 2030 hrs the night of 9 Aug 42. I can see no corresponding Luftwaffe loss apart from an Me 210 of Erprobungskommando Me 210 lost on an operational flight-Quartermaster General's Returns say 10 Aug 42 but the NVM says 9 Aug 42. Can anyone help me confirm that the 266 Sqn victim was an Me 210? On 13 Aug 42, 266 Sqn stated they were after a Ju 88 of 3/122 and shot one down but in fact shot down an Me 210 so their aircraft ID was not that perfect!
