Hello ,

Alain:

Possibly this one, but I'm not sure where Epernay is. Note it says two Spitfires--P-51s?

Fw190A-8, 170415, Engel, Ltn. Klaus, 1./JG 2, 10-May-44, KIA due to Luftkampf with 2 Spitfires, Ring, JG 2 loss list, p.24; westlich Epernay, 100%

Only other Fw 190 loss I have for that day was a crashlanding in Germany due to pilot error.

Hi John,

Thanks for the information , Epernay is not in Belgium but in France.
