Re: Heinkel HE 115C w/nr 2754 8L+GH

Hello, all.

Loss record as recorded with sources:

http://www.aviationhistory.no/ref_db...?lossid=117004

In addition - havin read countless pages from ObdM units war diaries, the location Ney is often referring to Norderney as mentioned above. One small very important thing is left out in the previous entries in this thread:

When referring to Norderney this way, the writing was N'ey - obviously a way of shortening the text you were writing. If you are a clerk typing up references to Norderney 1000 times a day I am certain you welcome the use of N'ey for short.

Even if this could be confused with Ney - a small Dorf between Hahn (Lautzenhausen) and Koblenz - no Heinkel He 115 would ever take off from there! \

The dorf is so small that even the Google Streetview car has yet to pass through it... and it has been to Aurskog were I live... even if it is a few years back as all I can see from my current house is the foundation!

Regards,
Andreas B
