Hi. I thought that the purpose of the Heinkel's flight was interesting. I don't think I've seen that mentioned before.

From Remp's book on the HE-219, the 21/5/44 HE-219 A-0 loss was wrk nm 190107 G9+FL at 1700 hrs., although he lists the crew Tampke and Tanbs as WIA.

The divers have resumed descending to the HE-219 off the Danish coast, and went down with a side scan sonar device to search for the tail. He reports that there was zero visibility in the water and unfortunately the sonar device failed, so they ascended without results and now are awaiting the sonar to be repaired. He also said is was very cold 2-3 degrees C.
