Hi Luc

I don't know these 'Lageberichts' you mention.
Neither can I say why they seemingly differ from the GQM reports.

For example on 27 Oct only one He 59 E is reported as lost, unfortunately I have no WNr for that one. Can't see anything damaged.

I can imagine that initially aircraft looked much worse damaged than they actually were and after a more thorough technical assessment was made, the actual report was downgraded. But it is a bit hard to comprehend something initially reported as DBF and later downgraded to not even damaged....

No I have no good explanation for that....

Cheers
Stig
