Pieter,

Your information from the the Ernst Rasper letter would seem to account for the high number of deaths on this crew. I'll be interested in seeing Peter Cornwell's assessment of this. This may well clear up the questions about this a/c. My deep appreciation for sharing the results of your research with us.
