Re: Dornier 217 crashed in Salerno 16 sept. 1943

Hi Salerno 1943,
the KTB of Istres airport is given follwing information on 16.09.1943:
5 Do217
Start 20:15
Landing 02:05 - 03:10
No Info about losses this day in the KTB

For the 15th we have
8 Do217
Start 22:16-22:30
Landing 04:48 - 05:48
2 AC did not return from mission

For the 17th we have
8 Do217
Start 21:00-21:14
Landing 03:21 - 03:51
3 AC did not return from mission

So i would think about one of the AC mentioned in the section for 15th could be yours. It is always a problem with the given date in KTB and loss records for night missions and like in this case, if also other bases may have been used.

Greetings

Lino
