Re: I/JG27 loss , Normandy , 1943 .

There were 3 losses that day, 2 pilots killed so the remainder is Lt Karl-Heinz Erdmann of 1 Staffel who baled out near Poix in Bf 109 G-4, 16159, White 2. there were 4 claims between 1508 and 1531 hrs so that would match especially as one of the claimants was killed

Hi,
You mean Neufchâtel-en-Bray 46Km East of Poix - I suppose? Neuchâtel-without-nothing is in Swiss.
