I./KG 40 also dropped mines but this task was taken away from them after they lost two Condors in July 1940 and started using the plane correctly!

Also worth noting that on 27 July 1940 (according to Bundesarchiv RL 2-III/708a) I./KG 40 had just 9 (3) Fw 200s so I'd be inclined to think that one or other of the He 111 units was responsible for the mining.
