Need info on a Lancaster who hit water and returned with two engines OUT
Good night Gentlemen!
A long time ago I read somewhere about an AVRO LANCASTER who came back to base with the propellers of two engines bent ( all of them I guess ), after hitting water ( yes, I remember clearly that they were probably hit by Flak and then, while avoiding or trying to recover, they hit water almost flat ) during a raid on the Baltic ( maybe the target was Stettin or Wilhelmshaven ).From what I remember the raid was late 1942 or early 1943.
I know this is a long shot, but I can not find on my files or books where I read this incident; neither obtain more details about the Squadron / crew and machine on the net. I've tried for a whole 15 days, without success.
So, I am writing hoping that maybe someone also read about this incident and do remember or know more about it. ANY information ( date, Squadron, crew, etc.. ) would be welcomed and a point of "start" for me.
Thank you very much and have all a nice week.
