Re: Radio Mast collisions summer 1940 Belgium

Thanks to all contributors to sort this out. Local reports indeed tell of a night collision and the other one in misty weather.

It so appears that the masts had claimed more victims on 30 Dec 1933 when an Imperial Airways airliner (Avro Ten "Apollo", G-ABLU) had drifted off course and collided with the tall structures....

Regards,

Leendert

Also this from ULTRA — unfortunately not specific as to the unit or the location. From the material I've read, the British did not know what unit LOEWE was (it does not however seem to be KG 26, which I thought at first).
