Hi, can anybody confirm the forced landing of an Heinkel111 3/KG53 A1+JL
nr Roth 27.4.40. (see Ebay link below) http://www.ebay.de/i...0-/270902158805 Any leads to this incident would be most appreciated, as it doesnt appear in Peter Cornwells " Battle of France Then And Now" losses for this date. Best regs, Steve. |

It was damaged in 60% due to engine failure.

Steve,
Not featured in BoFrT&N as not a 'Battle of France' loss. Details as shown: 3./KG53 Heinkel He111H. Crashed on take-off at Roth due to port engine failure. FF Lt Siegfried Günther, BO Uffz Josef Neu, and BS Uffz Josef Fischer all slightly injured, Bordfunker unhurt. Aircraft A1+JL 60% damaged but repairable. |
