One was listed in IV/JG1 as late as Spring 1942 but I am not sure if it was not a clerk's error.
Hi Frank molders did fly the f on 8th oct 40 as from some books a Lt amus was shot down in molders E model when combat was made Lt amus could not keep up,with the f0, staffels,planes and was shot down,made prisoner,
i Believe, molders shot 3 planes down, on 29th oct 40.with the f0.
