Hallo
The last losses (BV 138 / 2013+2014) from Adam was the same plane. This plane, type B-1, wears skz CP + CP and wnr 2013. It crashed because engine problems. The BV 138 B-1 / 6H + KH / WNr. 2009 crashed on 12. May 1944 near Kopenhagen/DK. JoMe |

Many thanks but I am afraid neither of them fits my needs. Hmm. |

I can assure you that there were no serious damage or loss to any Luftwaffe seaplane between 22.05.41 (He 59) and 27.05.41 (ar 196).
If you can prove otherwise, I will love to eat that camel. |

A Do 18 was claimed by RAF fighters on this date. |

Franek,
Can't help you on this one, sorry. I have nothing concerning any seaplanes - Do 18 or otherwise - encountering enemy opposition around this time frame. Out of interest which unit/crew made the claim and in what area? Adam |
