Hang on....

So we now have "three" aircraft from III./EJG 2 force landing in the Landshut area on the same day, 6 Feb 1945.

WNr 170053 (engine fire, west Landshut), WNr 110530 (engine fire, north-east Landshut) and WNr 11053/111053 (engine fire, north-east Landshut)

Sounds to me like at least one (perhaps even two) too many.

A Frenchman, Philippe Saintes in Avions Hors-série #45 has come to the conclusion WNr 170053 is correct and the others wrong.

I think we can dismiss WNr 11053/111053 as bogus, but what about WNr 110530?

Cheers
Stig
