Losses in Warsaw

In September 1939, Luftwafffe made ​​a series of flights over Warsaw, the Polish capital. In the first period, the city boasted a strong defense defenses. After September 6, 1939, the number of anti-aircraft guns greatly diminished.
As a result of anti-aircraft fire over the city have been destroyed at least eight aircraft Luftwaffe (damage greater than 60 %). Can anyone add information about losses reconnaissance aviation, aircraft auxiliary, which may have been shot down by Polish A/A (flak) from 1 to 27 September 1939?

Known Luftwaffe losses incurred as a result of firing anti-aircraft fire on Warsaw in September 1939.

PS
I do not mean downing over the city as a result of actions Polish fighters from 1 to 6 September 1939. It is quite another matter. I mean the losses caused by anti-aircraft fire
