Re: Ju52 & He59 shot down November 1940

Hi,

the last radio contact with He 59 was on 17.11.40 at 16.20 hrs. No mention that it was under enemy attack.
Ju 52 had been lost on 15.11.40 en route from Stavanger to Rantum. At 15.15 hrs German signal intelligence service picked up a radio message from victorius RAF a/c.

Regards

Robert

The claim for a Heinkel seaplane downed by HMS LOWESTOFT was made at 1755 hrs on 18 Nov 1940 while escorting convoy FN-37 off Hartlepool. A torpedo from a second seaplane was seen to miss the ships of the convoy.
