Night attack on London April 19. 1941

Hello!
I am looking for information on a crewmember and the rest of the crew, who were lost on the above date.
The crewmember was Ofw. Wolfgang Haselsteiner.
If possible, I would like the identity of the plane with codes and maybe the Wnr.

Thanks in advance
Christian

Are you sure about that date? I show no losses of He 111 or Ju 88 machines that night and The Blitz Now and then says no action was reported that night.

Ju 88A-5 , WNr 55151 flown by Burkhart, Ofw. Heinz, 1.KG 76, weisse G, F1+GH, MIA with crew, cause unknown. Sources: Gen.Qu.6.Abt. (mfm #3)-Vol.4; Foreman, 1941-TheTurning Point II, p.98.

According to The Blitz Now and Then, Haselsteiner was a crew member. All were killed. A Wealdon Aviation Archeological Group recovery produced a dingy, propellors and other parts.

Hi Christian,
Just to follow on from John's post above, this aircraft i have also,
recorded as having crashlanded at Giebelstadt cause not given, on 7.3.41
suffering 20% damage.
The crew were reported to have all been unhurt, but i have no information as to names. One wonders if your man was flying on this day?

Greetings from a very wet UK!

Regards,
Steve.
