Tony
Looks like both 0028 and 0037 received damage on 11.1.1941 0028 was the one which landed at Ile de Ro, prob 100% loss 0037 received 25% damage at Mérignac Nothing on the crew(s), I am afraid Cheers Stig

@ Chris,
i have a confusing double loss entry in my DB for W.-Nr. 0038: 1. 2./KG 40, 5th July 1944, shot down by P-38 at Cognac, crew perished 2. without named unit, 23rd April 1945, Lt. Schuster and 5 crew-members I believe this is based on the Nowarra book about the FW 200, which i can't dig out of my removal boxes at this time for to check. Greets Norbert

Hi Norbert, the Scutts book shows Fw 200 C-4/U2 0138 F8+IT (CE+IC) shot down by Flak Wilhelmshorst on 26-4-1945, would his be the Schuster crew ?

I should add that the Scutts loss list is mine as Jerry had based his list on Nowarra's book & had not taken into account research over the subsequent decades

Re: Identity of FW200 11January 1941
Hello Brian,
thanks for Your kind answer and info, but i fear this doesn't fit at least (i might be wrong nonetheless). I'm having this bird as "government aircraft", later transferred to 9./KG 40 without any further details. And: I always appreciate Your kind help and efforts. Best Greetings from a rainy, shivering Germany Norbert

Tony the GQM list just shows 11.1.- 'F' - I KG/40- Il de Re- Notlandung infolge Flakbeschuss - Fw 200 C-3 - 0028 - 100%. No crew details so no one injured and no code shown,
