Hi
I have no information about this date, but have a loss for 29/30th april '41, 93Sq claimed 1 enemy aircraft off start point, devon, ( target was Plymouth )
From memory the claim was that an enemy aircraft was plotted going into the path of the mines, and the track failed to exit the path.
perhaps someone here knows if there were any losses that night.
cheers
jerry
