Re: ID of a lost ME410?

According to a PoW from 1.(F)/121, whose a/c was shot down in the early morning hours of 26 April 1944, his a/c and that of an earlier recce that morning, were the first Me 410s shot down over England since January. The 5 crews lost between those dates were as follows: one caught fire and crashed during a test flight over Buc, another was shot down by German Flak, and 3 more fell to Allied fighters on or just before 20th April. So, the lost Me 410 would not appear to be from this unit.

By the by, does anyone have details on the Me 410 losses suffered by 1.(F)/121?
