Sorry my reply was confusing. For 21 October the ORB does list the pilots involved in the sweep: 2/Lt R E Rorvik (SAAF), F/Lt E H McLellan, F/Sgt A Liudzius and Sgt A F W Hunt. In my earlier reply I meant to say that the ORB does not make clear which pilots attacked the Fi167. The way in which the incident was written up it implies that all pilots attacked the Fi167.

On 15 October W/Off J G P Watkins, Sgt A F W Hunt, F/Off G Allan and F/Sgt G Postlethwaite flew an

"Offensive sweep against enemy a/c over Zagreb - Sisak area. Sighted CR42 at 1000ft flying West towards Sisak on parallel course, 3 miles to starboard. Attacked by Sgt Hunt and F/Off allan and strikes observed. E/A crash landed and pilot seen to leave it in a position 1 mile North of river 8 miles SE of Sisak. CR42 not destroyed so straffed and set on fire."
