Re: Heinkel He 60 losses
Hello Marius and Robert,
(1) If He.59 was destroyed on 6.IX/4.20 what was the source of the false information about 4.IX?! I suppose that aircraft which went missing on 3.IX was found?! What type of aircraft it was?
(2) I have four more destroyed aircrafts which I can not identify:
1.IX - Plane crashed in Wejherowo near cement plant. Two pilots were found. Both were already dead. Type of aircraft unknown (probably reconnaissance).
4.IX - Plane damaged over Rumia airport went down between Reda and Rekowo. Crew taken POW. Type of aircraft unknown.
6.IX/21.00 - Aircraft shot down over Hela by kpt. Dziubiński. Plane went down in the see. Patrolboat was sent to the place of the crash and collected from the water pilot's glove, collar and pieces of the wing (probably reconnaissance or hydroplane).
7.IX - Minesweeper Jaskołka spotted enemy plane diving when sailing in the Puck Bay. One bomb was released from 600 m and exploded near the ship. Though plane dived to the see and huge explosion was heard and seen [probably fuel explosion when plane hit the shallow bottom of the bay]. Pilot's glove and life jacket were collected from the water (presumed to be a bomber, though doubtful to me).
Can anyone help and identify destroyed planes?!
Regards,
Andrzej
