The crew members you list are the full crew of W.Nr. 5039. They are all listed as POW and as such, did normally return to Germany after the war.

I find it extremely unlikely they took off from Sola. I would say Banak is far more likely. I paid a visit to that airfield some years ago and it is amazing how look-a-like this place is. Close your eyes and you can almost hear the 88s taking off....

As usual I fail to locate the place you state, in this case Klimovka Bay. Locating Soviet places are extremely tricky, at least for me! Nothing on Google maps or google at all. Do you know where this Bay actually is? Mission was as usual to Murmansk.
May I also ask from where you have the extra details such as the place they came down and that they were made POW?

Cheers
Stig
