Question Paul Zorner and Bomber crew survival

Having read Zornerīs book on nachtjagd the propability of the bomber crew to survive seems quite poor. Maybe I am wrong. Anyway, of all the bombers downed by Zorner I reckon some 50% the whole crew died ( all kinds of bombers ), the rest with 1-3 crew members getting out of the plane. The pilot hardly ever making it. The figures are post war.

Is there any figures for the whole campaign somewhere? Thanx!

Erich,
