Data derived from many sources. Corrections/Additions welcomed via Helpdesk

NOTE ON DATES: IMPORTANT: For consistency, the Date is given as the date the mission TOOK OFF since the precise time of a loss is not always certain. Take Off date is unambigous and fixed in the official records, but obviously in those cases where the incident occurred before midnight UK time, then the Take Off Date will be the same as the Incident Date. Of course, most Bomber Command missions flew through midnight, therefore a Luftwaffe claim against a plane - or a locally generated crash report - may record the incident as occurring on the day following our Take Off Date. Bear this in mind when cross-referencing to our Luftwaffe Victories by Name/Date Database and other Luftwaffe sources. In some cases other sources may quote the date following our date, using locally generated reports as their source. To add to the potential for confusion, remember to take into account a Luftwaffe recorded date will be in local time, 1 hour ahead of UK time. When we discover a validated Incident Date we change our record if necessary.

Pilot successfully crash landed near no man's land.	Safe		Accident report	From pilot himself: With its coolant and oil drained away, the engine began to overheat and was about to burst into flames. I had to get out in a hurry, but I still had to land. First I thought I’d crash into some trees, then, I was sailing down neatly between them. There was some crackling as the canopy caught in the top branches and I gently slowed up until I stopped – with my toes just touching the ground. That’s the nicest landing I’ve ever done.
