Chris,

Wk. Nr. 3006 is a C-2 variant;
Wk. Nr. 1822 is a C-1 variant.

The above info is from the Petrick/Mankau book. If you haven't got it, and need further info like this, drop me an e-mail and I'll pass on all you need.

Thanks John & Robert. I have Marius' book. I should say that Oblt Christoph Nagel was 1 Staffel and flew M8+AH, not AK

According to T312/47 it was indeed M8+AH (948) of 1./Z.G. 76 that went down near Dabrowa at 1700 hrs on 2-Sep-1939.
