Re: Missing Losses

I too have this loss at Pl.Qu. 50 27 from the Gen.Qu.6.Abt. (mfm #3)-Vol.4 with not many other details. This is just another illustration of the mystery of the Gen.Qu.6.Abt. lists - it being so easy to overlook a non-descript report versus the specific details that Chris has. Another illustration of what makes this so fascinating, and, dare I say it, fun. In this case, the loss seems to be mentioned during the appropiate time frame covered by this particular loss volume. On the other hand, how many losses, crew and/or aircraft, have been 'missed' because they don't appear in the record until many months or even years after the fact, or appear in the correction pages? Good Lord, I find myself reviewing the same stuff over and over, and adding new entries to my db each time because I was a lazy git going through this stuff the first time!!!!
