Re: Bv-138 Artic loss 1943
This was in fact 6I+CL (wr.nr. 310135) from 3./SAGr 130, made emergency landing in White sea. 20.10.44 land observation post reported about plane flying low and fired flares near Morzhovets island at 04.15-04.30 Moscow time. Then "Crypotologists" says it land somewhere in White sea mouth. MBR-2 was sent to search but see nothing. Then more 4 MBR-2 were sent (all from Morzhovets aerodrome) but again in vain. 21.10.44 still nothing, but at 22.10.44 Bv.138 was discovered only in 27 miles north from Morzhovets.
23.10.44 plane and crew were captured by survey ship MGLA. Bv.138 later sunk being towed by destroyer ZHGUCHIJ |
