Hi Everyone
I am English and live in Germany.
The local MAyor has asked me if I can try and find something out about a B17 that came down in Wellheim Germany on 24 April 1944.

They were attacking Erding and Oberpfaffenhofen near Münich that day and Lost 27 Aircraft.
Can anyone help me find specific details on the Aircraft lost during this mission?.

Thanks in advance

I have found 38 B-17 down on that day.  It would take quite a bit of research to narrow that down. Best would be to put an add in a local daily paper and see what come back. Often times folks got photos hidden in old photo albums or drawers, you never know.  Danny
