KGr 100 flight on 2 March 1940 to Orkneys Islands
Good morning to all.
Some time ago a copy of the Flugbuch von Bordmechaniker Wilhelm Spreickerhoff (ex-Ln.-Rgt.100 and KGr 100) was sold at Ebay. I am interested on obtaining more details about a particular flight mentioned by the seller on this Flugbuch. This flight was carried out on the 02nd March 1940, apparently from the base of Schleswig-Holstein to the North Sea up to the Orkneys Islands (RN main base). Does anyone do know: a) Who was the captain (pilot) of this flight? b) Which was the code of the machine (6N+??) c) The total flight time (guess it was around 05 hours or plus) d) Was there any kind of British reaction to that flight? AA Fire at the RN base? RAF fighters were scrambled to intercept?? Many thanks for any additional information related to this flight Adriano B. |
