As of 12/1-45:
PD 233 Shot down by Uffz. Ludwig Kirchner and Feldw. Georg Lieber over Austrheim, Lille landøy.

NG257 Shot down by Werner Gayko, reported as "brennenmd absturz" 93 km SW of Bergen. Known pos and an engine recovered.


NF 992 Crashed at sea outside Fedje after midair collision with Ludwig Kirchner.

Flak claimed 11, but all BS.
