Seeking source for 13.08.40 Loss of 3.(F)/22 Do17P that disappeared over the N Sea this date
Hello,
Seeking any possible source for this loss just posted on the EoE LW Loss DB by Peter C. "13 August 1940 3.(F)/22 Dornier Do17P. Lost over the North Sea during long-range reconnaissance sortie, exact circumstances not recorded. FF Lt Reinhold Panhas killed, BO Fw Helmut Otto and BF Uffz Hans Bauer both missing. Aircraft 100% write-off. The body of Panhans was later recovered from the Kattegat and buried at Göteborg" Anybody got any ideas or further information? |

Location was 15 West 2970. There is a NVM at WASt. "Lt Panhans am 1940-10-07 bei Langeskar tot angeschwemmt". Otherwise no additional info.

GQM just shows unknown cause with position "15 West 2970" (east of Aberdeen ?).

Swedish spelling of the location where Lt.Panhans was found is 'Långeskär' on the Swedish westcoast. First buried at Grebbestad 1940-10-11. In the autumn of 1966 moved to Kviberg, Gothenburg.

Re: Seeking photos of 4.(F)/121 Ju88A-1 7A+FM that force landed wheels up on RAF Oaklington, near Cambridge, England, on 19.09.40
Larry two of the photographs you refer to are published in S J Peskett (1981) 'Strange Intelligence. From Dunkirk to Nuremberg' ISBN 0709189788. I remember them being exterior shots of the a/c being towed or pushed across the airfield, once its undercarriage had been lowered (it bellied in). I don't have a copy so can't answer but they will be credited there. A bit of a long way round but someone may give you the ref...

Re: Need confirmation of some pilots in 4./JG 51 in early 1940
Good afternoon Larry, i was wondering whether you managed to establish whether the pilots you were seeking, were with 4/JG51 during the time scale you were seeking.
Im quite sure most of 4/JG51's a/c were probably issued new when this unit was formed in November 1939, as to pilots on strength during this period i have scant information. After nearly 7 years since you last posted i would be interested to hear of any updates? Best regs, Steve. |

Seeking info/photos of Bf110 & He111 that made nose-tips at Stavanger-Sola AF circa April-May, 1940
Hello,
This photo is from the Holger Nauroth book "The Luftwaffe, From the North Cape to Tobruk 1939-1945" P23. It shows a Bf110C-1 of 2./ZG76 that ran onto soft ground and did a nose stand at Stavanger-Sola AF, Norway, sometime during April-May, 1940. The caption location of Oslo-Fornebu is incorrect as another photo absolutely confirms the location as Stavanger-Sola. In the far left background is an He111 of an unknown unit but certainly either KG4 or KG26 that FL in soft ground at the same time. I'm trying to do a color profile of the Bf110, but need photos showing the other side, and any insignia that might be there, presumably the 2./ZG76 "Ladybird" insignia, or possibly a top hat or both. Regarding the He111, we've been scouring our collections and so far can't find any photos showing this one. It is NOT 1H+CN that did a nose tip at Vaernes, near Trondheim, Norway, during April-May, nor 5H+HP that did a nose tip after the tail was knocked off at Oslo-Fornebu on or about 18.04.40. Who can help us document these markings of the two nose-tipped a/c at Sola, and/or provide date information regarding them. http://ihra.smugmug.com/photos/i-vv6...-vv6F4Bm-M.jpg |

Just to be accurate it is, of course, RAF OAKINGTON.
