Loss of a Fokker T.8 W (W.Nr. 5646) 16.09.41 Insel Milos

[Seaplanes]

Hi Stig,

If you look at the footnote in the book you mention, you will see that the C/n in the main listing is a typo for 5638. The correct numbers for the Finnish machines are in the footnote to this listing. R-6 was 5638 and the two Finnish aircraft 5636 and 5637.

I can also add that the three aircraft stored at Luftzeugamt (See) Travemünde and written off on 18.02.43 were C/n 5654, 5655 and 5656.

The first of the Luftwaffe batch was C/n 5644 (ex. R-12) used for weapons trials. This aircraft was written off 18.02.43.

A second test aircraft was C/n 5645 (ex. R-13). This plane was delivered to E-Stelle (See) Travemünde in March 1941. I have no further data for this aircraft.
