Re: Loss of British aircraft off the island of Kos 1943

Some 7 Squadron SAAF losses:
18 Sep 1943.
JK140 7 Sqn SAAF. Shot down by Bf109s over Kos
JK466 7 Sqn SAAF. Shot down and crash landed after engagement with Bf 109.
JK677 7 Sqn SAAF. Spun into sea off Kos while chasing Bf 109 19.9.43.
27 Sep 1943.
JG844 and JK667 (both 7 Sqn SAAF), both shot down in air-to-air engagement with Luftwaffe Bf 109s over Kos.
JK671 (no Sqn mentioned) Damaged by Bf109s over Kos 27.9.43. and abandoned on evacuation of airfield. SOC 30.9.43.

No serials in 74 Sqn ORB.
I only know that ES204 (74 Sqn RAF) crashed in an attempted forced landing near Castelrosso 28.9.43.
