Re 2002 lost on 29 May 1944
On 29 May 1944 a Reggiane Re 2002 of 238a Squadriglia, 101° Gruppo, crashed at sea near the Isole Tremiti islands, Adriatic Sea, and the pilot was killed.
I would like to know the name of the pilot (and if possible the serial of his fighter). I had a note (but with no source) that the pilot's name might have been Ferraris (and googling this name is bringing a lot of links, but not related to this loss ![]() Thanks in advance Laurent |

Re: Re 2002 lost on 29 May 1944
Thanks Andrea,
I get confused when I saw your reply, as I knew the island of Pianosa that is near Elba Island, between Italy and Corsica, and so wondered how the same loss could be reported in two different seas. I now found that one of the Termiti Islands is called Pianosa, so everything is fine. Best regards Laurent |
