Re: Bf 109 shot down at Burg, 24th March 1944
I saw the Fw 190 loss of .5/ JG 300 recorded on the website of Bobo. But, the crew of 604 Squadron identified their victim as a Bf 109, not a Fw 190. Personally I do believe that this aircraft can be the one I am looking for, as we do know that under the heat of action, at low level with all that Flak barking around, and only two or three seconds to aim correctly, it is very hard to judge the aircraft you are attacking, speciall at night! We do have several claims of well known German night-fighters that were misdjudged ( Lancasters for Halifaxes ).
Could you confirm if these losses of JG 301 and 302 were Bf 109 or Fw 190?
And yes, Nick Beale correctly identified NJG 11. We also do have NJGr 10 who operated a mix of machines, some in experimental way...
Glad to all that answered...we will find this clue soon...
Thanks a lot!
