[Laurent Rizzotti]

Hello,

I am searching the loss details of the following three aircraft of JG 103:

Bf 109 D-1 WNr 520
Bf 109 D-1 WNr 2028
Bü 131 WNr 561

Thanks in advance

Laurent

I presume you notice that Matti says WNr 520 was lost with JG 104 while you have it under JG 103.
Since you make no objection I suppose your info was wrong?

Hpwever all three are listed under II.JG 103 losses on the net....

Cheers

Ooops...

Thanks Stig for pointing that. I missed this point so far, as I had not yet updated my file.

Some years ago there was a database online about losses of II./JG 103. I asked once more details about two of these losses, and then the answer was that the WNr, pilot names and location were right but they belonged to JG104.

So I now wonder if the title was not wrong and in fact all losses are of JG 104.

But the database is no more available AFAIK.

No worries Laurent

I printed them...with faults and everything.
If you want a scan, send me a PM and I fix that for you

Cheers
Stig
