Nick,

I think so - the 11. Armoured reached Lübeck May 2nd - and they did come across the intermediate base of the 10./NJG 11 on the Highway to Lübeck. Flying time is rather short - I have just been up there in a Cessna, it only is about 50 Kilometers from the outskirts of Hamburg to Lübeck... nothing not to handle... I just cannot find and matching loss in the Records of Events for the Tempest Sqns... - maybe I'll check the Typhoons to make sure they did not mix up the types...

Andreas
