Re: Bf 109F-2 WNr. 8240 III. JG 3

WNr. 8240 is recorded in the losses for 7.Jul 41. as 40% damaged. If the machine was repaired in field, it is entirely possible that it was involved in a later unreported incident during the summer of 41 (less/= 10%) - maybe when Kijewski was acting Kdr. MAchine later went to JG 51 and was again reported damaged 9.Aug 42 and was finally a total loss on 3.Sep when Karl-Heinz Weber was forced to bailout of this machine.
