German picture taken July 10 1940
 
On July 10 1940 a 111Sq Hurricane, flown by F/O Higgs, collided with a Dornier of KG.2. On this site http://users.bigpond.net.au/mantis/fw/bob/fat.htm it is claimed that there is a picture of this event, made by a German pilot. Can anyone help me find it?

Thanks,
Dennis

Dennis,

I'm unsure whether you want help in navigating the site you mention or finding a copy of what I suspect is the rather well-known Ullstein photo used in many books over the years including Eagle Day: Collier (1966) for one.

Hello Peter,
Yes I do mean the photograph, which is apparently well known. Do you know of any recent publications that used this photograph? I will try to get hold of it then.
Thanks,
Dennis

Dennis,

I don't know about recent publications but the full image was used in The Luftwaffe War Diaries by Cajus Bekker (1964). Hope this helps.

Hello Peter,
Thanks for the pointer. I've bought one one E-bay.
