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.
Our hosting service imposes a 4-character search minimum for database tables. We have modified our databases to support 3-character name searches.
Add 'x' to 3-character name: e.g. to search for 'coe' put 'coex' in search box, for 'fox' put 'foxx'.

Over the target, the aircraft was damaged by Flak. Homeward-bound, the port engine caught fire causing the propellor to break off, severing control links; crashed in the North Sea west of Petten (Noord-Holland). Five of the six crew members managed to get into the dinghy. The tail gunner drowned when the wreckage sank. After two days, they were spotted 90 kilometers west of Den Helder by British planes. They threw off an aid package, but it floated away. On the morning of New Year’s Day, Josef Tomanek succumbed to the winter hardships. His body was put overboard by his comrades. It was not until 3 January that the dinghy and the other four crew members washed ashore at Petten. In the meantime, one of the crew members had died. (Josef Mohr was buried in the war cemetery of Bergen). Fg The rest of those who died are commemorated on the Runnymede Memorial. Fg Off Scerba was repatriated on 16 September 1944. | Monument to Lost At Sea | ||||||

Totara B2 |   | Citation Air Force Cross (07th September 1945): 'After completing his tour of operational duty in India in January, 1944, Flight Lieutenant Worsley was posted as flight commander to No 21 Armament Practice Camp where he flew on Fighter Affiliation exercises until returning to this country (England) in June 1944. Following a short spell with the Fighter Flight at Holme, Flight Lieutenant Worsley was posted to 74 Base where, owing to a shortage of pilots, he has been called upon to work long hours day and night in the air and on the ground. Despite this, the quality of his work has been high and his enthusiasm never weakened. On 16th April, 1945, whilst flying a Hurricane on a fighter affiliation exercise by night, the engine failed. After quickly establishing contact with ground personnel by radio telephone, Flight Lieutenant Worsley effected a successful landing at Carnaby airfield (2). His skill as a pilot, together with his untiring efforts, has been responsible for improving thstandard of combat flying of all crews who have passed through this unit. Sq/Ldr. Worsley earlier served with 253 squadron RAF (Hurricane), carrying our 13 sorties from the UK and then 44 with 67 squadron (Hurricane) over India and Burma. During Feb 1944-Sep 1945 he was a fighter affiliation instructor, first in India and then the UK'. | Read Archive Loss Report |
