Re: Beaufighter losses over the Aegean Sea, Nov. 10th, 1943
Dear Christos,
dear Favid,
many thanks for the additional information; from your post, David, I take it that in fact two Beaufighters were lost in the early afternoon engagement so that the two claims of III./JG 27 are accounted for.
It is a tempting idea that the Baltimore that you, Christos, refer to was in fact the a/c I'm looking for which was calimed in the earlier combat. The erroneous a/c-identification was common place amongst fighter pilots with the variety of British / allied twin engine types not really making it easier.
However, does anone out there by chance have more details concerning the loss of the Maryland Christos mentioned ?
Kind regards
Jochen Prien
