330 Sqn Sunderland downed by E/A 04.10.44 ?
Looking into the story of the Danish QM Kaj Alfred Green, 330 (N) Sqn., I have gathered the following:
http://danishww2pilots.dk/pilots.php?id=29 I am now trying to establish a better picture of the loss of Green and his crewmates, if possible. On 4 October 1944 Sunderland Mk. III (Z/330 ‘NJ181’) takes of from Sullom Voe, Scotland, at 1045 hrs. om patrol nea the Norwegian coast. The aircraft is piloted by Second Lieutenant Sigmund Alfred Johnsen. Green is navigating. At 1745 hrs. the aircraft is ordered to return to the base because of bad weather, but the aircraft does not respond. An allied crew report to have seen an aircraft in fire, and a Catalina reports to have been in combat with E/A. Later the same night the German broadcast, that two aircraft have been shot down near the Norwegian coast. Would anyone have an idea as to German victories in this area, or an idea of possible sources of information that could provide such information. Mikkel Plannthin
