Hello Alain,

Your question suggests that you assume that Patuschka had one (and always the same) Bordfunker, whereas it is wellknown that most nightfighter pilots have flown with other Bordfunker - than their regular companions - as well.

When Patuschka died, he was with the II./NJG 2, but you ask for the Bordfunker when he was with the 8./NJG 2.

All the best, Marcel
