Nice try @JU - 88, but probably does not change the actual facts.

^ OT here, @ JU 88 Did you happen to read "He flew by my side", written by Erwin Morzfeld?

^ i recently read it again, and found it to be better than some decades ago (getting older and having a better understanding of some technical details, and also regarding human relations). It is about JU 88 squadrons in their role as torpedo bombers, with the author being a pilot of one of those back then. In a way it is like this "633 Squadron", but with much less pathos. It is tense and frustrating at the same time, with a lot of gallows humor and some good info about the JU 88.
Since my father worked at the Junkers Werke in Dessau i have a sweet spot for the Junkers aircraft, though the later company became something different, after professor Hugo Junkers was sacked. I do not know if the english translation is any good, but it is a terrific (meaning positive) read in german
