Fieseler downes Costes in July 1918 ?

Fieseler states in his book that after the war it appears that he downed D.Costes at one occasion, probably in July 1918. Costes´ engine was shot and he was injured in one leg.
Derived from his book it was probably not a confimed victory for him,
because the Enemy fighter "disappeares suddenly".

Could anyone confirm this?

Hello Detlev

No, Costes was never shot down by Fieseler or any other German pilot.
