Re: Blohm & Voss victory claims

Hi Stig,

I have that book by John Foreman (and many others of his), but I believe he is in error here. I believe there is no connection between the two incidents. 233 Squadron was based at this time at Aldergrove airfield in Northern Ireland and P5123 was operating this day off the north-west coast of Ireland in support of convoy HG 50.
If the BV 138 crew encountered another aircraft I have no idea what RAF type or unit might have been operating in January 1941 off the Bay of Biscay. I wonder is the date of the encounter wrong ?

Regards,

Martin.
