Ju 52-equipped transport unit: "Beh. Lp. Baneasa"

I am looking for any information on this transport unit, particularly during the tumultous period between 24 August -mid-September 1944.
On 23 August 1944, one crewmember was killed on Szászrégen airfield, in Eastern Hungary (today Reghin, Rumania). Does anyone have any further losses for that particular day for ANY other Luftwaffe transport and courier unit?

"Beh. Lp." is an expedient abbreviation for "Behelfs-Luftpark". There was an branch aviation depot (Luftpark) at Baneasa at the time and this Ju 52 was just one of 2 or 3 planes the Luftpark used to run parts and supplies back and forth to user units.

HTH,
