Re: Ju 88 Landing Accident 29 Apr 43

Well, maybe all not that puzzling. Browsing through all the reported losses of III/KG 51 (and other units as well), it seems sometimes the Staffeln codes reported were not entierly fitting ´the correct´ Staffeln/Gruppen. I tend to think when the planes ´travelled´ between groups (or borrowed), then often keeping old codes etc. untill returned or lost. Also perhaps one was planned for one particular Staffeln, but then ending up with another... giving the same results.

I makes detailed research so ... interesting.
