Definitely Off-Beat: Guineas Book of World Records

The episode that John Manrho noted is the same that provoked my posting. Stumbled upon it by accident (no pun intended) and found it quite astonishing. 28 June 1943 five Heinkel He 111s of II./KG 53 were 100 percent lost in a mid-air collision during a unit training mission. . . .
Eighteen dead and some other casualties. If any one can top this, it would be interesting to hear about it.
