Hi

On the 22 MArch 7./JG 26 Claim 7 Kills over Malta:

Time/Type/Pilot/Kills No

16:24 Hurricane Oblt. Klaus Mietusch 4
16:25 Hurricane Uffz. Karl-Heinz Ehlen 1
16:26 Hurricane Oblt. Klaus Mietusch 5
16:27 Hurricane Uffz. Karl-Heinz Ehlen 2
16:30 Hurricane Uffz. Karl-Heinz Ehlen 3
16:30 Hurricane Ofw. Karl Kühdorf 2
16:31 Hurricane Uffz. Heinz-Norbert Kestler 2

According D. Caldwells both books (Jg 26 Top Guns of the Luftwaffe, and JG 26 War Diary vol. I) eight Hurricanes from 261 Squadron had been sent up against ten Ju 88s and their escort 12 Bf-109E-7. Five British pilots were killed.

I am looking for more information from the RAF side, like names of British KIA pilots, number of shot down planes (not always number of KIA pilot = number of shot down planes), etc.
