ID of Staffel Kap for 6./ZG 26 in late-39 to May 1940

Hello,

I'm looking for info on who was the Staffelkap. of 6./ZG26 during the transition of the unit from the Bf-109D to the Bf110B/C during October to December, 1939. Prien in his JFV #2 lists it as Hptm. Karl Planer until 30.11.39, but beyond that is an info gap until Theodor Rossiwall, who moved from StaKap of 6./ZG26 to take over 5./ZG26 on 19.5.40. Is it known when Planer gave up command, and when Rossiwall took over? One source reports tentative info that Rossiwall moved from III./ZG26 to II./ZG 26 on 1.5.40. Was this when he took over 6 Staffel? Was anyone else assigned in between Planer and Rossiwall?

Any help would be appreciated.
