Ogr. Paul Lux again, school unit or....???
Hello,
Back in 2005 I was asking if anyone of you could help me getting closer to solve some questions concerning Ogr. Paul Lux, who fell on August 13, 1940. On the back of the postcard, there is glued some information about him, believe it is from a newspaper, where it states, that he was a pilot and crashed with his plane. Back then I was helped with VDK searching and that it was most likely from a flying school, FFS C 4 which was stationed in Sprottau. In the Flying School loss list I cannot find him. My question is if any of you have found some new information about him and his plane since 2005? Sorry this long explanation, but I have come to a blind alley, it seems. Thank you in advance, Christian

From the monthly accident statistic it's the Ju 52 TT+ND (no WNr. known), which crashed near Aslau due to pilots error during a night exercise with three crew members killed.

Hello all,
How does Ju 52 3mg4e (6377) TT+ND sound? Respectfully, Steve Sheflin |

The WNr. 6377 received heavy damage on 10.05.40 in the Den Haag area - unlikely that the aircraft could fly again three month later.
