andy bird is an unknown quantity at this point
He.115 Losses 2/10/1940

Three attack a convoy off Kinnards Head at 19.00 hours.

Two of the three Blenheim fighter's on station from 254 Sqn engage one He. 115. At 19.14 it hits the water, the machine stays afloat until 20.10 hours according to RN report and 254 Sqn Combat Report. Destroyer picks up Luftwaffe crew from dinghy names given as Lenz, Schweetke and Neuberg

I have two codes for the machine S4+AH and 8L+DL which one is correct?

13 Grp scramble three Hurricanes from 'B' Flight 145 Sqn; Belgium, Pilot Officer Baudouin de Hemptinne claims a He 115 at 20.15 but accorrding to ORB he had landed back at Dyce by 19.35?

With thanks in advance.
