Re: 2641st Special Group plane found in italy
Apparently it was a CFIT accident ( Collision flight into terrain ), because I find no match on the Luftwaffe claims for B-24, Lancaster and Halifaxes that night or the night before 3/4 October.
Flak? Very improbable if it was around mountains...Engine problems? - perhaps! Lost ( faulty navigation )?
Very interesting this affair...I would like to hear more from you later. Maybe a collision in flight with a Russian Dakota? Or a RAF Dakota? Lt Walter Briegleb claimed a Wellington that night on 05 OST N/UO-84 from 300m. No further information...
Cheers
