Help Please with Sütterlin writing in 3./KG 30 Flugbuch
I am just doing preliminary search on the Flugbüche of a Pilot from 3./KG 30. Unfortunately for me, his handwriting uses Sütterlin letters and I am finding it hard to decipher. I would very much appreciate help with the following:
Page 53, Feindflug on 27.7.1940 out of Aalborg - what is the word written under comments? Page 53, Feindflug on 2.8.1940 out of Aalborg - 'Angriff ? NO Küste' what is the middle word? Page 55, Feindflug on 15.8.1940 what is the base flown from? I think they return to Oldenburg. The target was clearly Driffield but what is the first word in the comments? Page 57, Feindflug 26.8.1940, Where did they fly from (same as 15.8.40) and what is written in the comments? Page 57, Feindflug on 11.9.1940, What is written in the comments? There will be more pages to come but for now any help with these first three would be great.

Thank you very much Peter and Leo. This is a great help.
Apologies but I should have asked what base is written in for 2.9.1940 on page 57? Thanks again.

Re: Help Please with Sütterlin writing in 3./KG 30 Flugbuch
Additional questions on this Flugbuch and help will be much appreciated.
Page 59 - Does the comment for 23.9.1940 say 'England (Ostküste)'? Page 63 - I think the base on 11.12. 1940, etc. is Eindhoven. Does this seem right to you? Page 63 - What is the comment against 11.12.1940? Page 65 - What are the comments against 4.3.1941 and 6.3.1941? Page 67 - What are the comments against 10.4.1941 and 16.4.1941 (same word)? Also, what is the return base on 16.4.1941? Page 67 - What is the word after 'Bristol' against 22.4.1941? Page 67 - What are the two words in the comments against the two missions on 29.4.1941? Thanks for any help!
