Hi Dave.
I found only two losses corresponding to the dates in your table.
Both 10-11/Sep 44.
No 9 Lib EW198 shot down by Nightfighter on supply drop mission between Skopje and Kumanovo (Yugoslavia)
No 10 Lib EW205 Shot down by Nightfighter on mine laying mission to Danube near Gyor, Hungry.
If you think that it may be any of these I'll send you the crew lists.
There are no times next to them.
Hope it helps

EW 205 hit the electric cable..not due to enemy action...
