On 8 May (CX/MSS/OPD 1167):
NOTES: i) 11 Ju 88's were to take off at 0630 from Cazaux for Kerlin Bastard. Compare operation on 9/5 (OPD 1168) by 11 Ju 88's from N. Biscay area, where the first intention was for them to return to Cazaux.
That's a flight of around 400 km, from south of Bordeaux to Brittany.

What I posted for 9 May was headed "Heavy fighter patrol in the S.W. Approaches by Ju 88's of ZG 1" by the way.
