He 177 claimed on 25th Feb 1944
Could anyone confirm the claim of 4 Spitfires from 333 SQN led by Ltn Fredrik Fearnley for a He 177 or Fw 200 brought down near airfield St. Trond at 11:00 this day. This large German aircraft was attacked during landing on probably airfield St. Trond and was observed crashing into the ground. However Ltn. Fearnley, then a leading Norwegian fighter ace, was also seen diving into the ground and killed probably hit by airfield defence.
If aviable any codes, WNr. or crew details greatly appreciated. Could it possible be a aircraft from Ergänzungsgruppe IV./KG 40 ? Greetings from Norway Knut www.rafandluftwaffe.info. |
