Wekusta 1 OBdl Jan 41

Was this unit still operating Do 17 Zs at this stage or was it operating Do 215s/other types? A year later it had got rid of the Do 17

[Brian Bines]

As far as I was aware they were using Do 17Zs and Heinkel 111Hs with the first Ju 88s being delivered March/April 1941. Combat losses between May 1940 and Feb 1941 seem confined to the 3 Heinkels and 1 Dornier lost with a further one of each type returning with combat damage . First combat loss I had for the Ju 88 was Dec.1941 .I was looking for aircraft operating against the UK.
