Unknown plane and pilot
Hello,
Found in documents of the Departmental Records of Somme. “On December 22nd(1943) around 22:00, a plane not identified, supposed German fell in Thézy-Glimont(12Km S.E. AMIENS France). The pilot is deceased. In contact with the ground, the bombs exploded causing the fire of a barn…” Can be a FW190 of ?/STG10 ??? Who has information on this plane and his pilot ? Thank you for your assistance. Cordially

Re: Unknown plane and pilot
No loss in that are on Dec 22. However, on Dec 23:
1943-12-23, 1./SKG 10, Fw 190 G-3, 160617, SP+FQ, Südlich Amiens, Absturz. Bruch 100 %. Flugzeugführer Uffz Oertel, Lothar, + It was an operational flight and therefore it might have been carrying bombs. Also, it would be natural, that the unit reported it lost on 23rd, when the aircraft hadn't returned and its maximun flying time was exhausted. This is a quite common reporting problem during night flights. Matti
