hey flood , yo are great !!!
many thanks for your work !!!
now I can put same informations into my website !!

the “un-user friendly”, he came from Kiel too? I thinks I know him…

one data are misterious:

28.06.1940, Page Hampden, 61.sqdn, L4112:
you wrote, the a/c crashed in Kiel Bay. But I have informations, that the a/c crashed on land. the dead crewmember was found on a field in the near of the crash.
1KIA, 3POW is right. I have the details from original list of War Cemetary in Kiel…
Maybe your data is wrong?

thanks again for your great help !

RAF squadrons…never referred to as ‘n’th Squadron…Americans didn’t use Hampdens…etc.;)

Flood

Hi Ian,

are you sure ?

This picture was take on 26.Sep.1940 in Kiel. On this date only one a/c of Hampden was shot down by Kiel…and this must be this hampden from 61th squadron..

@ Ian:

maybe it is a hampden, yes. dont know more…

@flood:

sorry, its my mistake of date! the right date is the 8th. april 1941 !

today I was in a library and found a lot of picture from the crash of this a/c.
the letters “TL-P” are print. the a/c crashed on sep. 16. 1941 at 9.30 p.m. near Kiel
I hope to know, that is the L9505 serial, from 35th sqdrn.
you know more about it ?

thanks

nils

@ archieraf:

Do you have a list of crashed a/c on 15 / 16 September 1941 and 08 / 09 August 1941 during the raid of Kiel?

maybe it is no Halifax on the picture (first large picture)? the reporter wrote in 1941, it is a Halifax…

I have only one name from the pilot of the Halifax (Brown)

Maybe it is “Norman Moores” 10th Sqdn. ID 1304369 ? He is in my list of killed crews on this day.
