Re: He111 WNr4531 or 4581, mot.No 17541 3/4.Apr.1944
Friends!
Thank you for your efforts!
I'm so sorry. It was a Ju88. The report from which I took this info was written a few days after the downing of the plane. Now I have checked everything that can be found quickly about this episode.
It was a raid of two fours of Ju88 on the Luga railway station at 22:15-22:33 msk (21:15-21:33 DSZ) 4.Apr.44, so it was at night 4/5.Apr.44, not 3/4.Apr.
Interestingly, the same staff, which later wrote about the He111, wrote about Ju88 in the first report, as well as all other sources.
Apparently He111 is just a strange typo. But WNr of the plane and motor are mentioned only in this report.
I am somewhat justified in saying that so far I have never seen an error in the type of aircraft in such reports when WNr is given.
The question about the unit and the crew remains.
Best regards,
Andrey
