Thanks Chris, I'm looking for the circumstances of the Heinkel crash, whether it was during takeoff or on the way back from its mission.

As far as I know the NVM does not give that detail in this case. Time of crash was 01.45 hrs.

24.10.40
KGr.126 dispatched 3 He 111H from Nantes for mining sorties off the harbor of Belfast/North Ireland. Three 3 LMB were dropped off Cardiff and 3 LMB off Belfast. One He 111H of KGr.126 crashed at 01.45 hrs on return flight to Nantes probably due to bad weather. It was the first loss of mine-laying units since a long time |

Thank you gentlemen for your answers, we did not know if for this mission, the Heinkel had crashed during takeoff or on its return flight.
