Part of the information on this website was collected from my personal research and interviews with period witnesses, I would like to once again extend my heartfelt thanks to all contributing parties, who may have supported this endeaver. In the below listed sources, I searched for crash locations of war planes and filled in the details with the help of information from MACR and KU/J reports, as well as the data from eyewitnesses.
