Hello,

I search the following information about this Do 24 :

- to which unit did it belong ? possibly Seenotstaffel 1 ?

- forming and fate of the crew

- code and Werknummer

- cause of the crash

Thanks in advance

Pierre,

I do not have any seaplane (Do 18, Do 24, He 59 or Ar 196) losses on that day in France.

The only seaplane loss in France on 19. July 1941 was a He 115 of 2./506 (Brest), The Do 24 must have received only minor damage, less than 10%, otherwise it would have been reported through the normal channels.

Emergency landing doesn't mean crash.
Can you tell us more about the circumstances?
