Lancaster DV267
Looking for more information on this aircraft and crew.
DV276 was one of seven 101 Sqdn Lancasters lost on this particular operation. also lost were LL832; LL861; ME618; DV264; DV290; LM463.
Airborne 22:05 30 Mar44 from Ludford Magna.
Shot down by Oblt Helmut Schulte, 11./NJG5 and crashed 01:25 31Mar44 at R_thenbach, 16 km WNE from the centre of Nuremburg.
As I understand this Lancaster carried a Airborne Cigar (A.B.C.) - jamming transmitter carried by No101 Sqn Lancasters using an 8th crew member to monitor and then jam German night fighters.
Question did this aircraft also bomb as well as Jam?
