Other matching losses:
04.07.40 Blenheim L8866 18 Sqdn
16.07.40 Blenheim P6933 18 Sqdn
18.07.40 Blenheim R3661 53 Sqdn
20.07.40 Blenheim R3738 110 Sqdn
30.07.40 Blenheim R3764 15 Sqdn
01.08.40 Blenheim R3898 114 Sqdn (Eckerle's claim)

02.08.40 Blenheim attacked but escaped, identity unknown and not found in The National Archives, London. Probably 40 or 114 Squadron.

Best regards,
Hans Nauta
Thanks for the correction Hans. Info on where N3543 came down and at what time was taken from the Net, so not my mistakes. As for my fist post gald to be of service Robet. Just out of interest does anybody know what the 235 Sqn aircraft was tasked with at the time it was shot down.
