Thanks Chris, and I think you are right Stig, that it began with Mason, but Parker's Luftwaffe Crash Archive is usually pretty accurate because he used RAF Intelligence Reports, based on PoW crew interviews. The report may have been an example of misinformation because Parker states 'Started from an aerodrome in northern France at 16.30 hrs with a mission stated to be weather reconnaissance over East Anglia' – but Winter's own account clearly describes him taking part in the attack on London on the 7th.
