Re: Do 17Z-7
Heavily is kind of big word indeed. Substantial would be a better fit.

Re: Do 17Z-7
From TSAMO, I've attached the sitrep extract for the night of 8-9 November (assuming this is the right one). It ran across two pages so I made a composite image.
Regarding any "Feindberührung", see the passage: "Our night fighters had engagements with two Spitfires and one twin-engined fighter. One Spitfire was probably shot down in the process." It says on later pages that 10 night fighters were operating and that total losses on the 8th were 3 Ju 87 and a Ju 88. Later still, without giving a time or place, it mentions defence by "3 night fighters with unsuccessful attack". Given that the Do 17 under discussion crashed on the 9th, it may be relevant that that day's sitrep gives total losses as one Do 17 and two Ju 88.

Re: Do 17Z-7
Must be an error in Boiten's work then, regarding the Feindberührung?
