Uffz. Albert Hütterer : KIA : 2 Staffel : at SW of Lübeck 11.30hrs : Tempest 80 Squadron.
Note no.4:
Confirmed victories in Public Offical Record archives.
Note no.5:
Recorded on RAF combat report, and admited as confirmed victories with official citation by French Air Force.
Note no.6:
Fi 156 admited by French Air Force as an air victory. In fact Clostermann´s report indicated that his attack against the Fi156 just taking off obliged the german pilot to make an emergency landing. After a first pass over the enemy aircraft, while the air crew jumped out of the "Storch", Clostermann finally destroyed this objective on another attack on the ground.
Note no.7:
Only recorded in personal logbook. Classifed as probable by French Air Force.
