MACR 3492, B-24, 41-29434 missing

Surprisingly, MACR 3492, B-24H, 41-29434 is not existing in FOLD3. Some 15 years ago I have seen a hardcopy of MACR 3492. The case is of interest because the pilot 2nd Lt William J. TERRY is still MIA in Berlin although he was found 500m away from the crashsite iaw an attachment of a German report to the MACR.

Can anybody help me out with the MACR 3492 and the respective KU-Reports?

Jörg

Hi Jörg,


Is KU1286 the correct one for 41-29434 ?
