Re: Bismarcks Ar 196's
The interrogation of Bismarck survivors (document C.B. 4051, published in 'German Capital ships and raiders in WWII, Volume I'; by Frank Cass) revealed the following information about the embarked flight. The aircrew were four pilots and two observers from the Luftwaffe and two observers from the navy. Six mechanics and an instrument mechanic maintained the aircraft. These all were provided by 5./Bordfliegergruppe 196 (sorry about the Ku for a Bo!) and there appears to have been only one survivor; Mechanikerobergefreiter Ernest KADOW.
