Re: BF 110 VK+KL wrecked
Fellows—What follows is intended to clarify, simplify, and document the question of the "Bf 110 V K + K L Wrecked." Some of my comments may already have been noted.
• The photograph in the first posting on this thread carried the SKZ V Q + K L. It was a Bf 110G-4, WNr. 5338.
• The V Q + K L belly landed in Switzerland on 06.02.44 and was duly examined by Swiss authorities. The port side overall photograph noted above was presumably made after the landing in Switzerland. For this, see Ries, Deutsche Luftwaffe über der Schweiz 1939-1945, pp. 60-61 with photo exactly duplicating the image initially posted on this thread.
• Curiously enough, the Bf 110G-4 WNr. 5347 V Q + K U forced landed in Switzerland on 15.03.44. It carried the Tr.KZ 2 Z + O P of 6./NJG 6. One may refer to Ries, Deutsche Luftwaffe über der Schweiz 1939-1945, pp. 60-61 with photo.
