Re: Recon flight to Sevastopol July 1941

From "Seaplanes over the Black Sea"

On the 23rd, a Do 215 L2+AS of 3./Aufkl.Gr.Ob.d.L. engaged in a recce mission over Sevastopol is attacked around 8.00 H. by soviet fighters. One engine is burning and the crew hurriedly asks for help. The attack takes place too far for the range of the fighters ( around 250 km ENE Constanta). So, two He-59s, one romanian Cant Z and two other Do 215s ( from Bacau ) go to the spot. But all come back emptyhanded...
