Me 110 victory may 10 1940
Dear searchers,
I'm looking for any information about an Me 110 air victory around Luneville-Epinal sector (East of France) on may 10 1940. The french downed plane was an Curtiss H-75. The Me 110 covered an air raid and the dogfight occured around 15h00 / 15h30 PM. I believe the german plane was from I. ZG26. I've read some of the members of this forum made searches about air victories for the ZG 26. Maybe someone could help. Any information welcome. Thank you. Stephane |

Thank you James.
The first two are from II/4 not 3/4 and right, they are the planes i'm looking for. Any idea about the Me110 unit involved in the fight ? Planes downed for Luxeuil area were MS406 from GC II/7 (not 3/7). Have a good day. Stephane |

The book does not mention which Bf 110 units were involved in these fights.
