PRU Mosquito loss on April 1943
Good night to all!
According to the Mosquito production serial list, a FB.IV used by 540 Squadron ( serial DZ487 ) was lost on a sortie to Oslo on the 4th April 1943. According to Tony Woods claims lists, a Mosquito was claimed by Uffz G. Klein, a pilot from I/JG 11 ( his first victory ) over Fornebu ( ? ) at 17:47hs, 35 km E of Lister, on the 3rd APRIL 1943. I do have F/O Donald Francis Ignatius Hardman ( Aus 411888 ) as a 540 Squadron pilot killed on the 3rd MARCH 1943. My question is: Is DZ487 the machine claimed by Uffz G. Klein? Was the pilot indeed F/O Hardman? IF yes, who was the navigator? Thanks in advance for all answers and help Adriano
