Re: FAA claims 06 May & 08 May 1944

In one Czech books, which come out from English Source, is that on 08 May 1944 898 squadron shot down Bv 138 C-1 (W.Nr.0311031, 6I+EK) from 2./SAGr 130. But there are not pilot's names.

Maybe this help
Regards
Michal

Re: FAA claims 06 May & 08 May 1944

There have been posts on this subject on the Luftwaffe and Axis Air Forces forum, starting 7 May 2007 (BV 138 Loss Norway)

FYI: Acting Lt. John Arthur Cotching went Missing-Killed in Action on 8 May 1944 in an attack on a German convoy (Operation Hoops).
HMS Searcher, 882 Squadron.

Re: FAA claims 06 May & 08 May 1944

Hi Bruce,

I am sure that only two Bv138s were claimed, and that these were destroyed by Black Flight on either 6 or 8 May 1944. These victories seems so identical in time and location that it's two kills shared by several pilots?
