While I can't lay claim to fully understand what this loss is all about (why doesn't every author write in Swedish??  ), it doesn't quite sound like a Beaufighter kill at the date you list!
I am dying for a good explanation....

Stig, you pointed something interesting. The loss on 2 Oct 1944 was a Do 24 coded KK+LC. The Wnr 2212 was also coded KK+LC but was lost as you say on 9 May 1944. I just get confused between the two losses.
So the Wnr of this loss is unknown to me, but I maintain a Do 24 was shot down at this date and place.
Regards
Laurent
