Re: He115 attacked DC-3

The serial number of DC-3-194G "PH-ASM" was #2142.
After capture by Germans, "PH-ASM" served in Lufthansa airlines. Damaged in landing accident at Oslo-Fornebu on 21.08.1941. Dismantled aircraft was send to Swissair works at Dubendorf-Wangen. During repair (nose section reconstruction) several "patched" bullet holes were discovered. After repair (which cost 65000 RM and involved 26718 man hours) on 29.06.1942 returned to Lufhansa. Last recorded flight was on 3.09.1944. Probably destroyed by strafing allied aircrafts on late 1944 or 1945.
