Hi Gregor
As far as I know it is complete for aircrafts crashed in Denmark. The criterias for being on the site is given on the front page.
Try having a look at the allied aircraft section for that night. There is found a list of combats.

Hello all,

I./NJG 1 from Venlo were also sent to Stettin and Königsberg that night, most of these landing in Grove/Denmark, without any claims or damage as far as my knowledge reaches.

Other references found (option 1 a possibility, option 2-4 unlikely):

1) Bf110G-4 (Wnr. 140660), 1./NJG 3, NW-Coast Sweden, 100% loss, 1 KIA, 1 WIA. According to NVM: Bei Feindflug an der Nordwestküste Schweden durch Jäger oder Bomber beschossen. Treffer von de(?) Seite. ------ des Bordfunkers. Rettung unmöglich, in der Maschine ---------.
Certain parts in the NVM text have been blackened and are not readable.

2) Bf110G-4 (Wnr. 140329), C9+GU of 10./NJG 5, Königsberg, Luftkampf, 3 WIA

3) Ju88G-1 (Wnr. 710525), 4./NJG 3, NNW Stolpmünde

4) Ju88G-1 (Wnr. 714244), 1./NJG 5, Königsberg, aerial combat, 1 WIA, 1 OK?

All the best, Marcel

Hi Gregor30

I am in these days laying the last hand on a 375 pages book about the attacks on Stettin, Kiel and Königsberg in the last part of August 1944. I have been researching for this book 'for a few years' and I am pretty convinced that PA163 was shot down without doing any serious damage to the attacking German night fighter. There were only a few night fighters scrambled early enough to encounter the early crossing of the west coast of Jutland and none of these night fighters were Bf 110. It was Ju 88's as far as I found out.

I think that it was wishful thinking of Wasik (if the information about the damaged German night fighter comes from him). His whole crew was killed.
