10 May 1941: Sqn Ldr Meagher of 41 Squadron claimed a twin-engined aircraft he believed was a Ju88 shot down off Whitby at 0015, but then thought it may have been a Blenheim. I can't find any Blenheim or Ju88 losses that fit the bill. Any ideas?
A He 111 perhaps? One of III/KG1 was lost more less at the time.

6-7 August 1941: Apparently Beaufighter R2157 shot down by another Beaufighter. Any info on either?
I have it lost on 5/6 on a defensive patrol over North Sea with 25 Sqn. Crew: F/L TH Worth & Sgt FP Nekludow both killed.

23 April 1942: Two Polish Spitfire pilots attacked a RAF clandestine He115 in error. Who were they?
That should be identifyable, given the place (off IoW?).


Quote:
9 August 1943: B-26 41-31634 of 386thBG shot down by a Spitfire. What was the fate of the crew? Who were they? And who was the Spitfire pilot?
Someone had a bad day. Any more details?
