Re: Transfer of two 5./196 Ar196s in September 1942
The Ar 196 on board "Komet" (HSK 7/Schiff 45) on its first voyage was Ar 196A-1 W.Nr. 0030 SD+BS from 5./196. This aircraft had been partly converted to Ar 196A-2 standard with A-2 wings, floats, armament and radio equipment. It was destroyed on its second flight while attempting to take off in heavy seas on 02.10.40. The crew of Lt.z.See Hans Lindemann and Fw Lührs only received light injuries.
