On this date both 198 and 609 Squadrons claim a dozen Fw190 destroyed at two locations, Rouen-La Roche (9 Fw190) and Givors/Roye (3 Fw190). I cannot find any major casualties among the LW units in the meagre sources I have. Given that Typhoon claims are pretty accurate in this period can anyone solve this mystery for me.

The Osprey volume on Typhoons claims that Jg2 were the victims, losing at least six aircraft. Can anyone identify the pilots shot down?

regards,

Keith
