Are you sure about the family name?
I have one loss from II./NJG 1 during the night of 20/21 Jan 1944
Aircraft Bf 110 G-4 WNr 720180 shot down by its own flak and crashed at Herne, Nordrhein-Westfalen.
The pilot's name is listed as Lt Heinrich Höppner (not Wippner)

Source is Point Blank Band 1/44: Fred Trendle

Hello, there was no Lt. Wippner in Stab II./NJG 1.
You probably mean Lt. Heinrich Höppner *30.09.1916 in Hagen/Westf,

regards, René
