lost 1 Me-109
Hallo
Who can help me, please? On February 5, 1944 the II./JG.52 lost 1 Me-109. Whether there are details of it? Thank you in advance! Oleg Kaminski |

Re: lost 1 Me-109
Hi Oleg
I looked through the JG 52 loss list by Niko Fast but nothing was listed for that day. Since the QM 6 lists are lost for the time being all we have are the incidents which involved casualties and this would be appear to not be one of those. Hopefully, someone else can add more to this. Horrido! Leo |

Hello Oleg,
I looked in Bernd Barbas book about II./JG 52, but no loss found for that date. Kind regards, Dirk |

Re: lost 1 Me-109
Thank you Leo and Dirk
Yes you are absolutely right. In Bernd Barbas and Niko Fast book this loss isn't specified. But on the site http://www.ahs.no/ref_db/lw_summ_loss_acft_overview.asp this loss is specified: Registered Luftwaffe Summary Aircraft Losses Loss date: Unit: No of Aircraft: Category: Report date: 05.02.1944 I./J.G.52 1 20 13.02.1944 05.02.1944 II./J.G.52 1 3 15.02.1944 05.02.1944 III./J.G.52 1 20 02.03.1944 I am surprised with this information. Kind regards, Oleg |

Re: lost 1 Me-109
a 20% loss is not a real loss

Re: lost 1 Me-109
"20" is not a damage percentage but a category number.
