Exactly that is my problem as Mr Goss said.
From Kracker database the He 111P-2 "G1 + DS" mentioned as 2832 and not 2812 and that '' the incident took place over Gloucestershire when he was attacked by a night fighter''

Also, Mr Baumgartner I am interested to know more about Cunningham's claims.

Many thanks for the report Mr Beale

Regards
George

Kracker is a useful tool but contains errors and assumptions which is understandable due to its size
